Not only has the Romper Pub been marooned by the ever-expanding Manchester International Airport, it has now closed completely in accordance with the Government's virus containment orders. This is the route of the Old Wilmslow Road, which connected Hale Barns and Ringway to Wilmslow and Alderley Edge. In those days, The Romper had plenty of traffic past its front door, and Ringway Airport was just a few sheds and a Control Tower.
