As our pub crawl continued, things became hazy to recall.
Records show that we did enter this pub and successfully recorded a Cask Marque
visit, but we had nothing to show for it other than a quick half of Tetley
bitter. It doesn’t sound as if we were inspired enough to stay. I may remember black
timber beams, old wooden tables and a black painted bar but I could be merging
my memories with that of pubs gone past. It looks like a traditional town pub
that has been modernised to compete with its competitors to offer services that
you’d expect of a chain pub. The square main entrance could suggest that it
used to be a coaching inn with a recent extension on the left to accommodate more
drinkers; but it’s hard to say for sure as there’s no historical records. There’s
plenty of places to allow you to perch up and meet up with friends to watch live
sports; but there’s no atmosphere to invite you to stay.
