Nice looking exterior to this pub, spoiled by the grey paint job, it’s open plan inside and vaguely a U shape. There’s a central servery with seven solos of UK standards on one face. It has a pool table at one end where it leads out to a beer garden. A few screens and a machine of course complimented by music you don’t like, the young barmaid liked it as she was dancing along to it, a DJ area sulks in one corner. Modern pine furniture and flooring, green-grey woodwork where a bit of the original panelling remains. I’m not sure why there’s a clothes rack with a load of clothes hangers on one side of the pub.

Dating from the mid-19th century, this version was rebuilt in 1919 with some very fine Ashby’s Staines Brewery lettering to a gable.
Aside from the new – and misleading – gastro grey/blue colour scheme to the exterior, I doubt that a minor refurbishment from 2019 has done a great deal to alter the interior since David’s visit: the first thing you notice is the cheap pale pine floorboards, then the World of Pine furniture. The three-quarter height field panelling is now battleship grey, then white Anaglypta up a white ceiling with flush downlighters. There’s no obvious décor apart from a pot containing a dying palm, then another pot containing a palm that is now dead; in a corner flashed a games machine and there’s a pool table to the rear. There were multiple TVs showing the football, with customers transfixed, customers who were an older local bunch and all males.
There’s no cask here, with a half of Stella coming in at £2.70, served by a friendly barman.
This is quite a depressing place, the lack of cask not helping, despite the friendly barman; the Old Hat is a far better bet.

A largish pub / bar, diagonally opposite to Castlebar. The interior is L-shaped, bare-boarded throughout with a bar that faces, yet follows the L. A little Spartan inside, this has two-third height white wood panelling in a squared style, giving off a little Georgian drawing room feel (some of the squares are mirrored which wasn't so Georgian). There's a pool table at the far end of the L and at least four screens showed live sport. Sparsely populated too, a friendly barmaid raised the score a little, but this is another lacklustre establishment along this stretch which, although has potential, doesn't hold a candle against the nearby Star & Garter.
