The lounge bar is a classic example of how pubs were refitted in the 1960s, but very few of these interiors remain unchanged making this a rare survivor. The Old Vigour has been in the same family for 115 years and it remained little-altered until c.1960. The three existing small rooms were all refurbished and nothing much has changed since so this pub is stuck in a 1960s time warp. The oldest surviving fittings are the bar back shelves, best viewed from the small public bar. Also, note the old 'Commercial Room' wording on the door of the third room. The small smoke room at the front right, which is served from a hatch/doorway to the side of the bar, originally contained the hotel reception. Prior to the opening of the Catholic Church in 1965, church services were held in the lounge.
