Few alterations have taken place at this three-roomed pub since a remodelling in the 1950s. The main, quarry-tiled bar once consisted of two rooms and the fireplace and counter date from the refit. The hand-pumps are actually dated 1954 but the bar-back, with its bevelled mirror panels and sturdy pillars, goes back to Victorian times; sadly, its lower shelving has given way to fridges. Off to the left is a tiny room (the 'Lincoln Suite') with a hatch to the side of the bar. At times up to ten people can be found crowded into here while the rest of the pub stays empty! The dining room has half-height ply-panelling but little else of interest and no doubt entered pub use fairly recently.
A three-roomed pub that is little altered in the past 50 years. The main quarry tile floored bar was originally two rooms – note different ceilings, one is boarded. The bar counter looks like it does date from 1954, which is stamped on the handpumps, but it has a new top. The main bar back fitting may date back to Victorian times with bevelled mirror panels and sturdy pillars but, sadly, lower shelving has been replaced by fridges. Two smaller fittings on the right hand side are old, possibly from the 1950s. There is 1950s brick fireplace but the dado panelling is modern. Off to the left of the bar is a tiny room called the 'Lincoln Suite' with a hatch to the side of the servery. At times you may find up to ten people here and no customers elsewhere in the pub! The dining room on the left, which is likely to be a room brought into pub use, has old half-height ply-panelling.
