Another pretty Amesbury building. A bit of a locals place with loud jukebox rock and Definite Opinions. Main bar is to the left and a darts area to the right. Black painted beams, white ceiling, green half-length wood panelling; has obviously been tidied up lately but despite a decent finish lacks cosiness and is a bit gloomy. Oddly, a suit of armour was resplendent in the corner of the room. Four pumps with two ales on, Old Speckled Hen and Doom Bar, a half of the latter was pretty palatable (NBSS 3) which I was surprised by. Not somewhere I’d rush back to but it outperformed immediate expectations.

Now reopened, but sadly the new management has not taken the opportunity to improve what was a dump. It is still a pretty shabby, unfriendly town centre pub filled with drunk locals. The staff were a bit hostile and really didn't want our custom. No real ale and no food, so why would we want to stay? A shame as the pub is of historic interest, but I don't see my rushing back.
