Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest

Listed status: II

An 18th-century red-brick building on the quayside alongside the River Crouch with its own jetty and water's edge seating area. In 1957 it was refitted based on a ship theme and has three rooms around a central servery which are barely changed since. The front bar with river views has a wood-block floor, a distinctive bar counter of narrow lapped wood strips with four oblong 'box-shaped' areas at the top and a leaded screen with coloured glass panels above and to the right. Through a Tudor arch-shaped doorway is the small side bar with a similar counter, a wall with late 1950s ply panels and another wood block floor. The rear bar through another Tudor arch doorway has a small bar counter more like a hatch with plain 1950s panelling, another wood block floor, a 1950s brick fireplace, good quality fixed seating and an old tongue and groove panelled dado. The dining room was until recently the residents' lounge.

General information about historic pub interiors

A 18th-century red-brick building on the quayside alongside the River Crouch with its own jetty and seating area on the water's edge. In 1957 it was refitted based on a ship theme and has three rooms around a central servery which are barely changed since. The pub has been in the same family ownership since 1960. The front bar with views of the River Crouch has a wood-block floor, distinct bar counter of narrow lapped wood strips with four oblong 'box-shaped' areas at the top and a leaded screen with coloured glass panels above and to the right.

Through a Tudor arch shaped doorway is the small side bar with a similar counter, the wall here has late 1950s ply panels and another wood block floor. The rear bar through another Tudor arch shaped doorway has a small bar counter more like a hatch with plain panelling that looks from the 1950s, another wood block floor, a 1950s brick fireplace, good quality fixed seating on an old tongue and groove panelled dado. There is a small hatch to the left of the counter/hatch which may have been the off-sales. All the bar counters retain their sliding shutters which are still in use. The rear windows retain their rising shutters.

On the quayside side there is a dining room to the west and a small room to the east, which was until recently the residents' lounge - the plasterwork has been stripped off to reveal the old bricks beneath but the effect is spoilt by the crude new wainscoting.
