One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
This hotel retains a little altered small bar. On the right the door leads into an old hall with black and white tiled floor, old dado panelling, a good cornice and two part ceiling with a shallow arch between them, and two old ‘Bar’ windows. Through the inner door and on the right is a very small bar. It has an old possibly Victorian bar counter painted white and an old bar back with mirrored panels.
Behind the servery look for the burnished copper wash basin. The old stone fireplace to the right of the servery was blocked off by a wall and only uncovered in 1985 by the then owner Patsy Reynolds. There is a photo on the wall possibly taken in the 1960s showing the bar in its present position with a wall where the fireplace is now. The dado panelling on the walls is old but the flagstone-like tiled floor is modern. The rest of the hotel is modernised.
