Three Magnets (JD Wetherspoon), Letchworth Central, Letchworth Garden City

Pretty standard but quite large Wetherspoons with the typical plastic interior and usual run of ales (3 standard, 3 guests) and cheapo chav fuel. There is a beer “garden” to the rear but not exactly worthy of any attention other than for those who fancy a quick fag. Of more interest is the story behind the pub's name and the development of Garden Cities that can be found in the historical snippets on the walls along with the interesting photos of embryonic Letchworth straight off the builder's lorry. The town has been decribed by various luminaries as a town for a simple life so Wetherspoons was always going to be a success here but as far as the chain goes, this is one of the more ordinary branches.
