This Pub is Permanently Closed

Quite an old pub where the modern interior decor belies its age. Contemporary furnishings of cafe style tables and chairs in one section, sink-in sofas in a central section, and more traditional furniture near the bar sit against a kind of custard/brandy sauce coloured background. There is something of a music theme with a display cabinet housing a straw boater and a couple of instruments. Behind the bar is a novel dartboard clock.

Since closure it is being marketed as a shop for sale and subsequently opened as "The Optic Shop".

Information for this venue is provided by the Gwent Branch of CAMRA
