It wouldnt even have been worth rolling your eyes at. It would have been understandable. The Martlet is a new restaurant inside Rochdales magnificent Town Hall.

There is finely chiselled stonework, stained-glass windows and wood-panelled chambers with intricate foliage-strewn wall coverings recalling the work of William Morris. Ceiling panels are decorated with branch and leaf, upon which perch fully plumed peacocks and illustrations of the martlet, a mythical bird that was forever on the wing.
