The "Corner Cupboard" in Glossop; stands on a corner and is not renowned for being spacious. They do have an excellent C+W band, "Dark Horses" there on Thursday nights.

If I am going to plug pubs in Glossop, then the place to go for music is "The Globe", usually referred to as "The Globule", recently taken over by Ron Brookes and Diane Virgo, who are booking various local and not-so-local bands and performers every weekend. Recent acts have included bAd Dog, Kyla Brox and Steve Washington, with backing from brothers Sam Lees and Joe Lees.

Many pubs in Glossop have names which refer to various titles of the Howard family e.g. "The Norfolk Arms". At one time there were two named "The Surrey Arms". For convenience, they were referred to as "The Little Surrey" and "The Big Surrey", or just "The Big 'S'"
