Cask Ale Real Cider

Purchased by 536 of its regulars, fans and staff following a community buy-out in 2013. The Bell offers five regular ales, plus one or two ever changing guests from local micros. Live music is a mainstay of the pub with bands playing Monday and Wednesday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes. Open mic night on Thursdays. The interior is made up a long main bar and a number of seating areas whilst the wall space inside is taken up by posters for local events. Other features include bar billiards, table football, pool and board games. At the back of the pub is the Back Bar, which acts as a separate room for music, with open-mic nights on Thursday nights, and a function room. Also behind the pub is a walled-garden with covered seating.
