This was meant to be our final pub of the night, as it was opposite our hotel in the main shopping area of Northallerton.
The pub looks quite thin when you first enter. But it stretches a fair way back beyond the bar and to the toilets at the rear.
It was unusual to hear a cockney accent behind the bar. The young barmaid was from Tilbury! With only a couple of other customers in, we took outdoor seats on the pavement at the front, where we could watch the world go by on the High Street.
Black Sheep Best Bitter is the regular ale. I went for the guest ale, which was Copper Dragon Golden Pippin. Not a bad pub, but there are others that are better in the town.

A modern bar stretching deep into the building, which looks like it must have been a coaching inn. Much reduced now, and with nothing much to distinguish it from countless others of its type, with cheerful furniture and grey-painted walls. A mixed clientele: groups of middle-aged women, mothers with babies in push-chairs, and a solitary cyclist having a swift half of real ale and writing a few notes in his book. There were three hand pumps on the bar, and my Black Sheep Bitter was in good condition. (The others were Copper Dragon Golden Pippin and Consett White Hot.) The origin of the name is suggested (by the inn sign) to have something to do with a highwayman, but I have seen another reference to it being a euphemism for a switch or whip (either for encouraging horses or beating small children).

Long room with bar to right. Four weak hand pumps, rest keg. Nothing special.
