A CAMRA award winner, the pub features in CAMRA Yorkshire's Heritage Guide, with its dark wood interior and lead-lined windows. Easily reached by a regular bus service and close to Lockwood train station.
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
Forming part of a characterful little enclave of gritstone buildings, the Shoulder was extensively reconstructed in 1927 by the Lockwood Estate, its then owners. It preserves two very good front rooms from that time, either side of a tiled entrance lobby and both with quality fitted seating:- one is an intimate parlour, the other has glazed and leaded screenwork (which is echoed in the new outside windows) . These rooms were, astonishingly, suggested for opening-up in 2006 but saved, thanks to the licensee. Elsewhere inside, the removal of a snug has lost some of the integrity of the 1927 scheme but the rear lounge, with its semi-octagonal bar, retains some original fittings.
This Pub serves 5 changing beers and 2 regular beers.
