King Edward VII, Guide

Originally the Guide Inn and rebuilt as the King Edward VII in Edwardian times. It retains a large amount of decorative Edwardian tiles on the walls with a very decorative frieze in relief on the walls in two lobbies with terrazzo floors, around the rear bar area and up the staircase which led to a function room, now living quarters. The bar fittings probably date from the 1960/70s as does the fixed seating in the front left area. There are three little altered rooms. The front right room is slightly opened-up and retains original fixed seating, Edwardian tiled, cast iron and marble surround fireplace with lovely mirrored surround mantelpiece.

The rear right room has a doorway, wood backed old fixed seating and a baffle but has lost its fireplace. The rear left room has a doorway, more original fixed seating, a plain baffle by the door, a large inglenook-style fireplace has lost its fire and there is a hatch to the back of the servery, which looks like a later addition. It still retains its outside gents. Lots of Edwardian cut-glass windows remain.
