The main bar has a number of cosy areas with the bar counter looking very 1960s with wood patterns on Artex and fixed seating in some areas looks post war. Two benches either side of a not that old stone fireplace, benches look old. Restaurant / Dining Room has 1960s fixed seating around half of what was two small rooms. Another small 'Pig Tail' bar has possibly a 50/60s bar counter and bar back, one old bench. Has a bowling green and Bowling Club at rear. Not enough.
