A pit stop on a hellish early October's drive to God's own County afforded a appropriate pint of Abbeydale's Absolution, a somewhat sweetish strong Golden Ale.As described by esteemed scribes, this is an eclectic rabbits warren of a repurposed Bell Foundry. Time precluded a full exploration, but both food and beer were good, and the welcome warm.We'd like to return in more relaxed times.

Having drunk in a previous pub the NVB White Hart beer celebrating 20 years of this pub's existence, it would have been churlish not to do so again once I made it here. It was Very Good (again) and £6.00/pint, which is a bit less than I was charged at Paten & Co an hour earlier, but still quite steep. (Of course, halves may be charged at premium prices, but I never ask and simply double the price unless I see it displayed.) I liked it here, and was lucky enough to share a table (it was a busy Saturday afternoon, forcing me to be sociable) with two locals of a similar age to myself. They recommended two pubs I hadn't been to, the Lord Burghley around the corner, and the Copper Room on the way to the station. When I asked them to choose just one they plumped for the latter, which suited my inclination to get nearer to the transport hub towards the end of a crawl. Not that this was a crawl, of course, it's a pub research trip. This is another good Good Beer Guide pub, and is up there with the Green Man for my pub of the day.

Very busy, maybe too busy to really enjoy. Many rooms, though they can ditch the yucky green paint. Went for an Oakham/Hook Norton Collab which was par (NBSS 3). Nice enough overall, I’d like to try this at a quieter time, I suspect I would get a bit more value out of it. Don’t be fooled by the olde worlde interior, it isn’t a pub of age as was converted in 2005, earning an 'outstanding conversion or restoration' award from the CAMRAs as a result.
