Asset of Community Value

Back Street corner local built by Bullards – first licensed in 1878. Although opened-up it retains an old bar counter and a two-part back fitting that could be a Bullards one as along the top are mirrored panels with gilded wording “Whiskies”, “Brandies”, also set back a little one with “Cordials”, then a doorway for staff and another small back fitting with a “Wines” panel. Both bar back fittings have deep drawers just below the main shelf. Other items of note are two old window (or fly) screens – the wording of ‘York Tavern’ can be seen from the front but not discernable from within the pub. The two fireplaces may be old and there are good ceiling roses. Upstairs is a function room but the bar fittings look more modern than old with small carved heads in relief on the counter front.
