It looks small from outside but once in its a large rabbit warren. Can be noisy and seems to be making a lot of money from child benefits. Its usually very dark in here which is probably for the best.

Well as the previous review urged i popped in while in town to see this much improved 10/10 pub .

Pretty busy with lots of families eating , weave around the Pushchairs , prams and rucksaks handily placed in the aisles , past a group of what appear to be the illegitamate offspring of Jimmy Saville and Pinhead only one of whom has a drink the others are just staring blank eyed at the ceiling , quite a few middle aged blokes staggering around on a mission to drink themselves stupid , around to the bar where half a dozen old blokes are using there combined 300 years of experience to block as much of the bar as possible , get to the bar and what a choie GK IPA or Pedigree , opt for the IPA , barmaid half way through pouring suddenly looks up in a panic and shouts did someone order a Guiness , no one replies , she looks confused and carries on pouring the IPA , get my pint , its so cold my hand freezes to the glass , fight past more prams to the back of the pub where some middle age couples are passing round a bottle of brandy to top up there drinks , the beer is tasteless and the smell of fried food overpowering , then theres the noise , all the kids start shouting the parents trying to quite them down shout louder and the old boys by the bar start arguing even the `shell suited adverts for the local piercing shop start talking loudly , well when i say talking more stringing a random selection of swear words together , i drink up and leave .
So yes a welcome improvment i would give 11/10 if i could
