Mid 19th century three-storey building originally the Amersham Hotel and now rendered with an old red neon 'TAKE COURAGE' illuminated sign that stands out (the blue ‘Amersham Arms’ sign at the top may be from the refurbishment in 2007). The rear part of the building is of two storeys and where there is a stage just single storey. Two bars – one at the front functions as a pub and the second at the rear is part of a live music etc. venue and dimly-lit - and from the extensive fielded panelling appears to have had a significant makeover in inter-war times by Courage.

The two serveries situated at the rear of the front bar and at the front of the rear bar / venue look in the most part as inter-war with their fielded panelled fronts but there is no certainty they are in their original position and in the case of the rear one it appears to have been expanded in modern times, and in the front bar the counter on the right appears modern. The bar back fitting looks like a island-style one but abuts the counter so again where was it positioned originally?
