The Black Horse, Moulsham, Chelmsford

The Black horse is an L-shaped pub with seating to the left of the entrance and a slightly raised seating area to the right where an old brick fireplace with log fire was popping away on the right-hand wall, I think this was for atmosphere rather than heat because it wasn’t particularly cold outside during my visit. An L-shaped serving counter runs up the right-hand wall; standard and premium keg was available alongside Landlord from one out of four hand pumps that was in use. At the rear is a pool table and dartboard and there was some background music playing from the likes of the Stones. The barman/governor was very flamboyant and friendly, so I was made to feel very welcome, it’s just a shame that there wasn’t an interesting ale to tuck into.
