White Cross, Richmond

Dating from 1845, the pub retains some of its 19th century original interior features including a stone surround to an unusually-placed working fireplace underneath a window, and a glazed island servery.

The servery also has an over-bar with the very rare feature of sliding sashes above the counters, although these are now unused and permanently raised, and the counter front has fielded panelling. There's also a mantelshelf on the wall on the right where there would once probably have been a fireplace. The original division of the space is discernible in the ceiling beams and doorway on the left of the servery, which indicate the smaller rooms the ground floor once comprised, which would probably have offered public saloons, private rooms for customers and space for off-sales of alcohol.

The early 19th century staircase with simple moulded newel posts and stick balusters leads up to the dining room which has what looks like an original glazed door and a plain skylight, but no other old features.
