Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Dun Cow
Attractive old pub, appearing to be a genuine Tudor building rather than a later brewer's fake. Anyway, once you have negotiated the flight of steps up to the main entrance, you find a suitably traditional L-shaped bar at the front and several further seating / dining areas of various sizes as you go further back. Just a pair of Wye Valley beers from the two banks of three handpumps: HPA and Butty Bach (£4.40).

One of those pubs whose exterior is all askew. Old style inside and not too bad. Real ales available.

Very old pub reputedley haunted , lots of old beams and a few old wooden panels give a hint to the age of the pub , front is the bar area , to the rear is the resturant , usual keg taps and three handpulls , Bombadier , landlord and an OK Bass

Real mix of people in here for a Tuesday. Locals round the bar, football fans watching the TV and a few people in for the food. Real fire in the main room but freezing in the separate restaurant area. 3 handpumps but only London Pride and GK IPA on tap. Had a pint of the IPA, it was OK, but then IPA is only an OK pint at it's best. Looks like a popular pub and it's certainly one I'll call in again when in this part of town.
