One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

The focal building of the Greenhill Conservation Area, this stone-built two-storey pub has five rooms. It was refitted by Tennants in 1960 and apart from the addition of a dining room to the rear has changed little in over 40 years.

The room with the most character is the front right lounge which is completely fielded panelled to picture frame height making the 1960 work seem inter-war . The front door led into an off sales in 1960 but the wall that separated it from the front left games bar was removed in 1988. The rear left lounge bar has a 1960. At the rear is the 1980 dining room.

General information about historic pub interiors

Designated the focal building of the Greenhill Conservation Area, this two-storey pub of stone has five rooms. It was subject to a 1960 refit by Tennants (M.W.Ofield, Architect, Exchange Brewery) and apart from the addition of a dining room to the rear (without major impact on the layout) it has changed little in over 40 years.

The room with the most character is the front right lounge which is completely fielded panelled to picture frame height making it seem like inter-war work but it too dates from 1960 as does the small curved counter. The wood surround of the fireplace dates from 1960 but the interior is a Victorian reproduction. The room is entered by a door from the front lobby and has a widish gap to the rear right room.

The front door led into an off sales in 1960 but the wall that separated it from the front left games bar was removed in 1988 and the curved bar counter also dates from that date but is of similar style to the two-sided one it replaced and the one in the rear bar. Fixed seating looks 1960s as does the bar back with its carved top section.

The rear left lounge bar is accessed by doorways from the front left and rear right and has a panelled counter with a black painted front that dates from 1960, but has a modern mirrored bar back. The small curved stone fireplace with a copper band looks very 1960s. Through a widish gap at the rear is the dining room added in 1980 and has a well (recently covered over). The fixed seating is 60s in style to match that elsewhere and there is a large baffle.

The rear right hall with a high ceiling has a modern flagstone-like floor and is a creation from 1960 with a panelled counter (now with a light brown stain). The bar back is unusual with small square panels and a top section with decorative strapwork and is also believed to date from 1960.
