Looks like a proper pub from the outside, but the inside has been totally ripped out. There's a pool table to the rear and smart dining tables throughout. Still not much in the way in interior decoration. Sadly there's no real ale here now, just a selection of standard kegs on the bar. I asked for a half of Fosters and was served a pint. However the barman and the solitary local in the pub were both very friendly and chatty, so all was well.

A bit of a disaster interior-wise. Sparsely decorated in red and cream with a few pictures dotted around. Two real ales available. Its not too bad but it just looked like a 1970s social club to me.

Newly refurbish to a very high standard, now has two real ales to complement the usual complement of beers
