Unspoilt two-bar, three-room pub near the Market Place.
Saved from conversion into a Chinese Restaurant/Takeway in 2011, this pub has retained some 100 year old fittings. The public bar has a bare wood floor and unusual panelled dado with a smaller strip above the standard height. The bar counter could date from Edwardian times with panelled front, some pilasters and a band at the top of diamond shapes. The part mirrored five-bay bar back fitting is old with good pilasters holding up the top section and a doorway in the centre for staff. Note the fridge in the servery which covers up an old fireplace. It has a good plasterwork ceiling but a modern brick fireplace. The rear bar was probably refitted in the 1960s as there is a plain counter with a copper top and the small back fitting with copper on the main shelf - the top section could be more modern. Tables in this room have copper tops. There is a wide gap to the rear left room with has modern dado panelling and a pool table.
