Converted from weavers cottages and selling beer from 1851. The licensees were then Mr & Mrs Rustrick. It is a friendly single room pub, originally 2 rooms, with a small yard for those who smoke. It has bench seating and has a light and airy feel. Like its neighbour The Circus it vies for the title of one of the smallest pubs in the city. On match days it gets busy and space is at a premium. e city centre. The beer range varies, showcasing some of the less common Hydes ales. With many original features, the planned August refurbishment will be sensitive. Expect new Gents and improved garden space. Entered by steps from the street it may prove difficult for those less able and no wheelchair access.
