It seemed a shame that we only had time for a half here, as this is clearly the real ale destination pub in Stapleford, and moreover the place where a wake was held for Alan Winfield. With 13 hand pumps, and several ciders in boxed polypins, we could have saved ourselves a lot of walking and just done the pub crawl here. However, in the spirit of this memorial pub crawl, we had a half and moved on.
The landlord was friendly and enthusiastic. He talked to us while pulling through the beers on the two or three pumps that were unadorned when we arrived. A novel idea is that the pump clips are duplicated on a board to the left of the bar in the form of a chart, where the clip's position on the board indicates its relative colour and strength. This one would definitely merit a return visit, of rather longer duration.

A decent traditional pub that had a choice 13 hand pulled ales on our Friday eve visit. There was a large beer board on the left hand side of the bar, which was more like a graph with the ABV on the left vertical and the colour from left to right on the horizontal plan, then the particular beer was positioned on the board. The interior was considerably bigger than expected, with a decent sized front and rear lounge areas. Originally this was a multi roomed pub, which is evident around the ceiling areas, which now have quotations written along the now plastered in steel beams. The staff were all upbeat and helpful when choosing a beer, we went for the Hartshorne Fusion and the West Gate Sunburst. The pub is also on the main bus route travelling from Ilkeston to Nottingham, so it made a handy pit stop.

Enjoyed our visit here yesterday and found a good selection of ales on offer. We chose the Full Mash Horse and Jockey and Shipstones Nut Brown which were both very good.
