Reports in Oct 2016 say that Holts Bitter is once again for sale, albeit intermittently. As of June 2015, the pub is for sale, so its long term future is uncertain. Situated by a busy crossroads, it was originally built as an hotel, there has been a hostelry on this site since 1824. Renamed from the Hare & Hounds when the adjacent Vernon Park opened in 1858. A central bar serves a Vault (with pool table) and the larger Lounge area. A quiet and welcoming pub that becomes busy and lively when the locals arrive to watch live sport on the four TV screens. Lunches 12-4 (12-6 Sat/Sun), evening meals are 4-7 Mon-Fri only. History: A change of ownership in Feb 2013 saw the end of the sale of Holts Bitter in favour of a new range; later still in 2015 cask ale was sadly removed altogether.
