The New Inn, Salisbury

If there is one certainty about the New Inn it is the fact that it is definitely not new, an ancient timbered building, seemingly made up from a series of older probably cottages with a mix of flagstone, quarry tiles and wooden floors. A proper low black and white boarded ceiling and timber framed walls with projecting possibly wattle and daub infill. A rambling place of several connecting areas, the side rooms are up a step or two and some contain log burning stoves. There is a garden to the rear. Various bits of framed stuff but of note were the floor plans of Salisbury Cathedral which is nearby. Stairs lead up to rooms available for accommodation, meals are served in the bar. Hall & Woodhouse beers from three pumps, two were on, Hopping Hare and Tanglefoot. Not my favourite brewery but the beer was in good shape. A fine building full of history well worth a look around.

Another nice looking pub exterior an ok inside with various interlinked rooms, the Badger beers (three available on handpump were average at best.It does have a very nice beer garden if thats your thing.
