Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
This pub still has two separate rooms with a relatively modern arched cut-through between them.
Almost certainly built in Edwardian times and a marked contrast with earlier, Victorian ornateness. The exterior is distinguished with brown glazed brick, a band of blue-grey mottled faïence and some attractive designs in the window frames. The upper parts of the windows throughout the pub, as well as the doors, have some delightfully detailed glazing with pretty green leaves and other motifs. Both rooms also have beamed ceilings which were popular at the time to evoke a sense of older, timber-built buildings.
Both the counter and the bar-back in the main bar (originally the saloon bar) on the right look as though they might be inter-war replacements, although the counter top is modern. A prominent Tudor-style arch spans the width of the room. A charming detail not to be missed is the Art Nouveau-style spear-like recesses carved in the wall panelling which are probably a unique feature in pub ornamentation.
The saloon bar (originally the public bar) on the left now has little of interest other than an original fireplace with attractive tiling.
This Pub serves no changing beers and 2 regular beers.
