200 year old brick built pub with 6 small rooms and active bowling green. A newsagents shop on the right (original front door still visible) was incorporated into the pub about 100 years ago when an extension was added at the rear. Some refitting in the 50s (there is a 1953 Coronation painting on the wall of the Vaults). The small ‘Vaults’ on the front right has an old quarry tiled floor and two old baffles as you enter, the frosted ‘Vaults’ window is from the 30s but the bar counter and the bar back are no more than 30 years old. The rear right room has 1950s fixed seating and fireplace but the glazed partition and the hatch are new – previously you walked into the passage and was served from the back of the bar. The middle front bar is opened up to a passage on the left side and has a modern bar back and counter. Rear middle snug has more 50s fixed seating and the bar counter could be 50/60s. Front left room looks like it could have been two rooms in the past but has been like this for 50 years. The rear left ‘Bowling Room’ has the oldest fittings. 2 baffles and fixed seating could be 100 years old and fireplace looks 50s.

Update: Downgraded following unsympathetic renovation by Thwaites.
