Apart from the name, railway photos and memorabilia give a clue to its past, the London North Western Railway being most prominent. Inside there is a cosy lounge for a quiet time, but the most popular room by far is the bar which is full of character and characters! The regular beers are joined by visiting guest ales on a weekly basis. There are some good pubs in town but don't leave Abergavenny without making a beeline for this one.
Historic Interest
No listed status but features in Real Heritage Pubs of Wales. Behind the pub a doctors' surgery now stands on the site of the former Abergavenny (Brecon Road) railway station.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
This Victorian porticoed small hotel, built close to the former LMS station, has signs of an old off-sales hatch as you enter. In the small public bar, the original bar-back shelving extends across the room but the counter was shortened in the 1990s when a gap was created on the left to give access to the three linked rooms at the rear. Note the Edwardian etched 'Station' & 'Vaults' panels in the side door to the public bar. The first and second rear rooms retain their old fixed bench seating and off the second room is a further tiny room. A partition between the second and third rooms has a double door width gap in it. A small lounge is on the right. A quarry-tiled passage runs from a hatch at the back of the bar to the rear and outside gents’ toilets.
