FULLY REFURBISHED BY PUB OWNING COMPANY UPHAM BREWERY IN 2017/8 - ONLY RETAINS THE ORIGINAL PARQUET FLOORING AS A CLUE TO HOW IT ONCE WAS. The Thomas Lord (formerly the New Inn) was rebuilt in 1934 and still retains some of its 1930s fittings(NOT ANY MORE). You can easily spot the changes to the plan form thanks to the original plans being displayed in the left hand room (NO - NO LONGER THERE). The Jug And Bottle has been absorbed into the public bar; the left hand former 'Tea Room' has lost a wall that created a separate passage from the front door to the rear; and the wall between the public bar and the tap room on the right has been removed. The right hand section of the bar counter has been turned at right angles and painted a pastel colour (BAR A NEW REPLACEMENT) and the original front door converted to a window. The bar back is modern. The large brick fireplace in the 'tea Room' remains as does the original tiling and urinals in the gentlemen's toilets (NO _ NEW TOILETS) At the rear right a new bar was created in the 1980s from the former kitchen.
