Historic Interest
Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the only public house ever designed by the great architect. The bricks are 16th-century style and Sir Edwin specified that they be imported from Belgium. The design of the chimneys pays homage to his Cenotaph in central London. The pub cost £7,000 to build and was opened on 23rd May 1936; today it bears a blue plaque in honour of Lutyens.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 2 regular beers.

It’s two pub trails in one—buzzing seafront bars followed by hilltop hideaways. Sea views, local beer, and proper Devon character all the way through.
Beachside brews, backstreet locals, and a hop from the station—Paignton’s trail is full of variety, real ale, and seaside soul.
A harbour-hugging trail with fishing-town charm, characterful pubs, and a serious range of ale—all with the sea never far from sight.
