The Liden Arms, Swindon
One of the beauties of Arkell's is that its tied estate offers a staggering range of different pubs for its customers to enjoy the brewery's fine beers. If they are looking for a straightforward, honest, friendly modern estate pub to enjoy their beer, customers will find The Liden Arms is the perfect specimen.
In terms of Arkell's long and proud history, The Liden Arms is a mere youngster having been opened on 12th November, 1980, by racing writer and former jockey Lord Oaksey. But even a modern pub in one of Swindon's modern estates inherits Arkell's legendary commitment to quality and local people.
"The Liden Arms is almost entirely a Swindon-built project," said a proud James Arkell when the pub opened. "We have gone very much for a public house atmosphere, with a lounge and public bar serving traditional real ale and all the other Arkell products."
The Liden Arms caters for workers from the surrounding industrial estates at lunchtime - as well as being a focus for the residents of Liden and beyond in the evening.
