Stone built former Wilsons Brewery pub still displaying some of their breweriana. It has a layout of a passage from the front door to the rear with four rooms off. The lobby bar counter looks like it is from the 1960s - a lot of customers drink in the passageway with shelves along it. Has lots of ply panelling on the walls. The front right small lounge has a doorway/arch, the bar front might be old, stone fireplace and ply panels above look 1960s, piano and armchairs make it look cosy. The front left room has a wide opening from the passage, seating bays not old, stone fireplace possibly old. The rear right room has some old fixed seating with bell pushes in the panel above, stone fireplace might be old but counter not old, possibly 1960s. The rear left room looks like one brought into public use and has darts and two settees. Opens at 2pm Mon to Thu, 1 Sun.
