Operator: Robinsons Brewery

This Pub is Permanently Closed

Converted 2/8/2013 to Ladybarn Social Club. Closed 2/5/2012 and sold by Robinsons on 12/10/2012.

History: This multi-roomed old fashioned Robinson’s house retained much of its lovely etched glass, period ceramic tiling, and a solid-oak carved wood bar. At the front were two large lounges, each having their own characters and atmosphere. The bar somewhat dominated the left side of the main room, off to the left of this was a short corridor leading you to a tiny snug with its own male toilets - this featured a couple of 1920s urinals which were worth a look-see. To the right in the main room, a splendid staircase lead you to the upstairs comfortably appointed snooker room. Finally, at the rear right was a small room offering a pool table. Note too the historic Off-Sales sign etched in the glass outside, Known by many decades ago, and to this day as the ‘mucky duck’. In its latter years it only sold Robinsons Unicorn bitter.

Inter-war pub built for Kay’s Atlas Brewery, whose name can still be discerned outside, lots of original leaded glass in windows. Inside, the central lobby area has been opened up but peripheral rooms remain intact. Two at front (right and left) with original fixed seating and fireplaces; vault-cum-snug at rear left, again with original fittings) and pool room at rear right (this possibly former domestic accommodation)

Update 2013: Re-opened as a club. CAMRA members can sign in without being members of the club
