Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The High Cross
Conversion of the former public conveniences dating from the 1920s, so not an ideal layout when very busy on match days. That said, throughput of customers was well organised and the wait wasn't too painful. All the seats inside were taken or reserved for those eating, but there is a compact beer garden on the side of the monument that gives the place its name. Interesting selection of ten craft keg beers on tap, including my Never End from Two Flints (£7.80).

Founded in 2018, this place takes its name from some neo-Gothic stone thing surrounded by wrought iron railings, at a road junction just to the south; the presence of Ladies and Gentlemen signs are a clear indication that this was once a public convenience, but as a bar it’s anything but bog standard.
The interior is tastefully trendy; you can do a tour on Google. Understandably though, it’s absolutely tiny with a bar-ette at the end; smooth sounds played over the stereo, but otherwise there’s no electronic entertainment. Customers were young and trendy, making for a good atmosphere on my Thursday visit. On the minus side, illumination is low, meaning that I couldn’t read the unlit fisheyes, just about making out the Siren logo, which turned out to be their IPA, served by a friendly barmaid and at a reasonable – for ‘craft’ – £3.10 a half, for this is a house of keggery, the lack of cask meaning that this doesn’t qualify as a micropub; it tasted like every other beer of this type.
I’m not a fan of bar conversions, almost exclusively eschewing them in favour of traditional purpose-built pubs, which also helps keep them afloat. But this is a great little place and if I could be guaranteed a table to cater for myself and a couple of friends, I could quite easily spend an evening here. However, the lack of cask means that for me it shall remain forever a curiosity, which I’m unlikely to revisit.

This is a great little conversion to a bar. Barmaid assumed by the look of me that i would like the 4.0 lager she recommended to me before i even got to the bar. Wrong ,i went for an imperial stout.I was just about to ask someone where the toilets were when i thought this place is tiny,surely i can find them myself.It took me two circuits of the pub before i found them just behind the front door.
