Whilst the Water House is the city's more traditional Wetherspoon's outlet, the Bishops' Mill is a more modern affair, located in an outdoor shopping centre amongst shops and restaurants.
You enter the large patio area at the front by way of some steps down from the main passageway through the centre. Once inside, you instantly know you're in a 'spoon's.
The usual suspects were on amongst the ale range - Greene King Abbot, Ruddles Best & Sharp's Doom Bar. The 2 guest ales were Maxim Swedish Blonde & Hanlon's Citramas IPA. I chose the Citramas IPA, which is almost certainly a rebadged version of their Citra IPA. In addition, two real ciders were offered - Weston's Old Rosie & Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon.

Badged as a Lloyd’s, it’s in a modern leisure area of restaurants and such. Funny old shape inside maybe a truncated U sums it up. Usual furnishings although more space than usual between the tables in most of the gaff, but not round the low tables at one end. Counter at the back with usual 5+5 pulls topped, tailed and divided by T-bars, handily the dross is at the left hand end with a reasonable choice at the right, fairly decent nick too. Toilets are on the same floor level, which is nice.

This large Wetherspoons/Lloyds pub is secreted away in a modern leisure development, surrounded by sundry restaurants etc. The main bar is a bit of a cavernous space, but there are a couple of separate side areas and a surprisingly-tasteful and comfortable 'library' area. The beers at time of visit were rather disappointing however, with a small selection of the usual national brands and nothing local at all.
