Nice old building with low beamed ceilings, exposed brickwork and old prints. Vintage Inn so is popular for food. Three handpumps with Hook Norton Lion, Doom Bar and London Pride. The array of pumps clips behind the bar suggest a more adventurous choice in the past. WiFi from o2.

This is now a "Vintage Inn", so the standard company menu rules. The beers on the pumps, when we visited, were London Pride, Adnams Bitter and Sharp’s Doom Bar. Never tried the Doom before, so I had a pint. Never have been a fan of Cornish Ales, still not. Not the fault of the Pub, just not to my taste.
Might call in again if we are in the area, but wouldn't make a point of a specific visit.
