UPDATE 2014.

Converted to residential in 2014 and therefore re-categorised as Permanently Closed.

The former description is shown below. 





A small plain early 20c backstreet local. Mostly the original layout, but modernised. The public bar along the front looks like an amalgamation of the bar and a small room on the right - the best feature is a good old chunky bar counter, but the counter top, bar-back and fixed seating are modern. Rear of the servery are two rooms served via hatches - an attractive lounge has a good interwar fireplace and fixed seating, and a very plain games room. On the left the old off-sales with a hatch is still there. Formerly owned by Lichfield Brewery - but has three old 'BANKS'S ALES' etched windows.
