No cask, two handpumps used as tethers for the collection boxes. Keg was basic, Guinness, Madri, Fosters, Coors, Inch's cider and the dark fruits SB, Moretti and Stella.

Quite large roadside pub with ample parking to the side. Inside it was U shaped with the bar counter along one side and the bottom of the U! There was stool seating at the bar counter. Venue largely bare boarded but entry side from the car park had a stone walkway to the bar counter. Couldn't investigate that side much as there was a function ongoing, but I noticed it was wood panelled and had nice window view to the garden out the back. To the right of that entrance was a continuation of the wooden wall panelling around a fire grate and a nice seating area around with regular tables and a leather banquette under the window looking out onto the main road outside. The other side of the bar counter had tiled walls, a fitted fabric banquette under the roadside windows, regular tables and chairs and a pool table at the rear of the area. Quite a few TV screens showing the tennis and an unobtrusive soundtrack being played in the background. The beer garden at the back was partly paved and partly grass, with traditional picnic tables and a bouncy castle that gives a clue as to the target audience here. Sort of venue that would be benefit from some decent beer choices!
