This is a Samuel smith’s pub selling a strong lager at £1.61 with strength of 4.5% min (reportedly stronger than Stella). Although there is no jukebox or TV’s there are various games available darts, cards, doms and chess etc, a very sociable place to be especially with http://www.footballbloodyhell.com/ having their monthly meetings there.

The Turnpike is a plain looking pub that is set in a row of shops.
Once inside i went in a decent sized room that was the bar there was probably a lounge to the rear of the pub,this pub is a Samuel Smiths tied house and there was one real ale on the bar this was Old Brewery bitter and this was a very nice drink that was also quite cheap.
I was happy enough having a drink in here.
No doubt the gaffa at Samuel Smiths will be unhappy about me showing one of his pubs with with their signs outside.
