Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Company of Weavers (JD Wetherspoon)
Quite large inside, but almost inconspicuous in the street scene. Nothing very unusual about the interior, which dips down to a slightly lower level at the back, but the local history panels are interesting and the colourful artwork of what appear to be spindles of wall catches the eye. The selection from the two banks of five handpumps was also unexciting on my visit, with just Redemption's Gulpa and the ex-festival Brew Moon Antipodean (£1.99, still in good shape) produced at Adnams in addition to Greene King IPA, Doom Bar and Abbot.

Quinno _ left this review about The Company of Weavers (JD Wetherspoon)
A fairly recent (2012 I think) addition to Timbo’s portfolio. Inside it is - you’ve guessed it already - long and narrow, with the usual Spoonaroonsey décor given a woolly bent due to the heritage factor of blankets being manufactured in the town many years ago. Food was unavailable during my visit due to a malfunctioning kitchen, bet that would have hit the takings hard. Four genuine guest ales at the bar though seriously haphazard quality; my Adnams Broadside was ok (NBSS 2.5) but my companion’s Oakham Citra bore little resemblance to one of the UK’s most-loved cask beers (1.5). Much room for improvement.

This was formerly a night club called the Palace and I did find something saying a cinema before that. There was the usual outcry from existing pubs when JDW moved in over four years ago.
The small frontage gives way to a medium sized Spoons inside. Inside the bar is on the left and there is a lower area at the rear plus a small narrow seating area to the right.
The beer choice here seems to have declined since the year it opened with the JDW Trio of Doom doubled up leaving just GK Old Speckled Hen, Hook Norton Nerdherder, White Horse Village Idiot and Prescott Track Record. I went for the Village Idiot (£2.19)
which was in good condition.
Not a top Spoons in my book (it may well have been back then) but it's OK.
