Built in 1840 as a coaching inn, due to its close proximity to the Heaton Norris Station, The Magnet has retained its original name for 170 years.

John oficialy opening the pub"The Magnet" is Stockport's newest real ale pub. After getting the keys on 22nd September 2009, a massive refurbishment was undertaken.

On 13th November at 13:13:13, we tempted fate and opened our doors, with a ribbon cutting ceremony. The ribbon was cut by our good friend John who was born on Friday 13th!
