Colonel Fawcett, Camdenback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Used to be the Camden Arms, the bar has moved over to the side and it feels much lighter than it was. My family used to run this place 1848-1867. Upstairs room looks great and can be accessed up the new staircase though the 19th century spiral staircase is still there (not for use if you are tipsy)
Charming & efficient staff and the food was great, I had lamb cassrole with parsnip mash & Kale washed down with Stowford cider, other half had herb crusted cod with aper potatoes, creamed leeks & shredded kale (bloomin' nice apparently) & lager.
Had to sample a gin so had a Sipsmith & tonic to toast Col Fawcett. Well done to all concerned, wish I lived closer!

This pub has now reopened and has been renamed the Colonel Fawcett , he was the last man to die in a duel in england fought in this very pub where they say his ghost still walks . They have a vast display of gin and 4 real ales plus continental lagers . It's a large room with a set of decks in one corner . There is seating outside for smokers with a cover for the rain .
