Two-room pub rebuilt by Young’s in 1961 to replace its WWII bomb-damaged but patched up predecessor only then, in 1981, to have all its windows shattered by an IRA bomb in an army bus passing by! The front bar was opened out in 1988.
Low ceilinged, part wood-panelled and featuring an attractive fireplace, often used for real fires on winter evenings, the bar is furnished with a mixture of high tables and stools and good-sized dining tables with chairs and upholstered benches. Old prints and mirrors adorn the walls and the wood-topped bar has a panelled front. A dart board is available at the fireplace end of the bar, except when league matches take place. Several TV screens show football matches, occasionally different ones at each end of the room!
The back ‘patio room’, separated from the main room by folding doors, has its own bar, is available for functions.
At date of this entry the kitchen is closed. There were reports in late 2023 of unavailability of cask ale here. Further updates on the pub welcome.
