An estate pub, part of a mini retail centre which also contains a McColl's and a Coral bookies. Open plan inside, with a hint of division (hinged sliding doors amidships). Games area to the right, including dartboard, pool table and Northamptonshire table skittles. The shopping bit is a little run down, but the pub looks neat and tidy inside and out, and rather than a token real ale such as Doom Bar or Pride, the single pump here offered a Charles Wells 'Wandering Brewer' beer called Jazz Club; which was "nice..." A couple of big screens were showing the football, and despite a couple of obligatory stares, the locals seem OK - one even said "bless you" when I sneezed.

The Mulberry Bush is a modern 70s built pub that is next to a small shopping parade.
This pub does'nt look that good from the outside but it was a lot better once inside,there were two rooms and i had a drink in a smartish lounge which was carpeted and a decent enough room to have a few drinks in.
This pub is a Charles Wells tied house and there was one real ale on the bar this was Wells Eagle bitter and this was a decent drink.
The pub was quite busy on my dinnertime visit.
