A large rambling interior in a pub which reopened after refurbishment as the Bowler in 2005. TV sport is very popular here with multiple TV screens. Pub has been acquired a sister pub to the Sekforde and has been renamed as the Marian Anderson, after an American singer and civil rights activist. Eclectic mix of furniture. Real Ale may not always be available.
