Saddle Inn, Blackpool

Claims to date from 1776. Entrance hallway opens into former central corridor. The original layout of three rooms and a lobby was changed in the 1990s when a Bass refurbishment included the removal of the wall separating the tiny 'Men Only' snug. Corridor has been opened out to left. At front, residual fitted seating with brass bell-pushes. Original bar counter has remnants of sliding sashes with stained glass, but the bar back is a replacement.

Two good rooms to the right. Front room called 'Lords' has stained glass panel above doorway, short screen to right of door, re-upholstered fitted (post-war?) seating, matchboard panelling on walls, ceiling finished in Lincrusta, brass bell-pushes, and reproduction fireplace. Second, ‘smoking room’ now called 'Commons' has stained glass panel above doorway, short screens on either side of door. Re-upholstered fitted (post-war?) seating, walls matchboarded, Lincrusta ceiling, brass bell-pushes, and reproduction fireplace but it has good relief tiled panels. Extended to the rear, where there is now a food servery.
