Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Clumsy Swan
New-build pub, part of the adjoining supermarket development, replacing the large roadhouse-style Yew Tree (a photograph of which can be found behind the counter). It now comprises a large single bar with a busy dartboard but no pool table as far as I could tell. Also has a semi-separate restaurant upstairs (although not open at the moment), and quite a large patio beer garden at the front. Unfortunately, the real ale (evidenced by some pump clips on the wall that aren't that old) has disappeared, leaving a slightly unexpected 'choice' between John Smith's and Worthington's, with the latter proving to be just £2.20.

As of February 3rd the Yew Tree is being converted to flats, and will not re-open as a pub.
