The Star is a lock side Marston’s pub with picnic tables down the canal side of the pub to allow for waterside drinking. Having arrived by foot I entered through the car park past a couple of picnic tables to the entrance where I found some steps up to the left where the main L-shaped bar counter is found. Standard and premium keg were available, but unfortunately only Bank’s Amber was being drawn from the four hand pumps. To the right of the entrance some steps lead down to a flag stone floored area with an old worn brick fireplace, but it was lights out down here during a recent late Tuesday evening visit. I think this pub must come into its own when the downstairs bar is open and passersby alongside canal folk are utilising the facilities. During my visit it could have been any mediocre high street boozer on a quiet week night.
