This Pub is Closed Long Term

Unchanged traditional pub. Serves the full range of Samuel Smiths beers but only Old Brewery Bitter is on hand pump. For lager drinkers there is the hard-to-find Sam Smiths Organic lager on tap. Exterior white paint/render was removed in 2015 to restore its original frontage. Company policy of no mobiles, laptops or tablets is in place inside the pub.
