Strongers . left this review about The Wheatsheaf

The tile floored main front bar of the wheatsheaf has tartan banquettes across the front windows and a fireplace with burner on the wall next to the angled serving counter right rear. To the left of the counter is a step up to the tile floored rear bar where there’s a dartboard and jukebox that was switched off while the radio played from behind the bar. Televisions in both bars were off, and the pub was empty apart from the polite lady running the show and myself. However, there were a handful of people in the large marquee found towards the rear up the left-hand side of the pub. Available on draught were a premium keg range alongside Carling and Alpacalypse. There are also hand pumps with the cask options being Salopian’s Hop twister, Bristol Beer Factory’s Power Drive and Bishops Castle’s Three Tuns. Yes, I was the only customer in the actual pub, but I got a good vibe so will return when next passing.

As described below though unsure what is the connection with The Beatles?
A half of the Salopian Oracle hit the spot, this is one to include on a crawl.

A trip across the Welsh Bridge from the town centre to reach this Wheatsheaf and to find a decent locals pub with two internal areas as well described by other members of the recent Pubs Galore crawl, so no need to repeat any of that, except to say as well as the framed Beatles album poster in the main room there was a fine framed poster of the Bowie Ziggy Stardust album cover on the pillar between the two interior areas.
Friendly and engaging service levels and four ales on the go made this an enjoyable stop, especially as the Bishops Castle Three Tuns was in fine form.
