One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

This brick and Norfolk carrstone building was purchased by Steward & Patteson in 1929 who shortly afterwards refitted and extended it. The public bar on the left has a bare wood floor, a sloping bar counter that looks very 1930s but may be a replacement, a bar-back mixing 1930s and more recent work, and inter-war bench seating and brick fireplace. A dado of 1930s panelling is painted cream where a section of the bench seating has been removed. The lounge on the right is completely covered in 1930s wall panelling which indicates the room has been this size since that time. The bar-back is the original with a mirrored back, as is the counter. Also of note are the fielded panelled door with a glazed panel in the top, a good high-backed bench as you enter and seating probably from the 1930s. A 1960s looking fireplace on the far right has a built-in clock above it. An off-sales hatch between the two rooms has been lost.

This brick and Norfolk carrstone building was purchased from the local Bagges Brewery by Steward & Patteson in 1929 and shortly afterwards was extended to the right and refitted by them. The public bar on the left has a bare wood floor, a sloping to you bar counter that looks very 1930s but may be a replacement, the bar back is a mixture of 1930s and more modern, some 1930s bench seating and a 1930s brick fireplace. There is a dado of 1930s panelling and where a section of the bench seating has been removed at the front of the room it is painted cream. The lounge on the right is completely covered in 1930s wall panelling which indicates the room has been this size since c. 1930. The bar back fitting is the 1930s one with a mirrored back and the bar counter is also from that time. The fielded panelled door has a glazed panel in the top, a good high backed bench as you enter, and the seating could be from the 1930s. There is a 1960s looking fireplace on the far right with a built-in clock above it. It has lost an off-sales hatch between the two rooms.
