A riverside traditional pub, basically layed out inside but very popular on a late Friday afternoon.Four cask beers were on Courage Best, London Pride ,Deuchars IPA and Fine Tuned Free Style. Pleasant.

The Nova Scotia is a nice looking pub that is just over the swing bridge,that is watched being used while in the pub. Once inside the bar faces in a long oblong shaped room which runs the width of the pub,the floor is bare boarded,there is bench seating with chairs and small stools,there is also a small separate room to the left. There were five real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Moles Jailers Daughter,which went down well,the other real ales were Deuchars IPA,Courage Bitter,Bombardier Gold and an house beer Nova Scotia Bitter. The pub was empty and too quiet when i first got in just after 12,but started to fill up as i was leaving. I thought this was a pleasant pub to have a drink in. Pub visited 15/7/2017

Bass, Robinsons Wags to Witches, Otter Bright, Thatchers Traditional. Not many notes – narrow bar room, opening up slightly left of bar, local feel. My iffy beer was changed, no problem, but the replacement wasn't tremendous. Wasn't originally on-map, & I doubt it would be next time.
