And the name itself now seems to be swamped by advertisements for the cheap and cheerful menu, so perhaps we can surmise the managerial strategy. Not that's in unusual!

Oh, and I meant to mention - not sure that 'George Staples' is anything but a spurious so-called local connection. Did the previous 'The Woodman' have a particularly unacceptable connotation?

Anonymous premises these days, indistinguishable from so many others, coupled with equally anonymous surroundings and beer and even the food.

A cheap menu, these days, is hardly unique, but at least it's offered.

Not somewhere, I think, though, to make any special effort to patronise.

What a shame.. The pub is done out lovely BUT we were so fed up with the loud boring music tapes played on the TV's over and over again, that we were finally driven out to find other pubs.. Used to eat in here a few times a week but the music really put me off!!!!

Salsa gone or going, as with cheese night and keep fit. Quiz night moved or gone, Rock & Roll Bingo gone Karoake moved. Children out earley. Not sure if changing almost every thing that made it a place you wanted to be is the right move. when the community wanted it like that and supported it why change it??? Bands back, never worked before or the time before that. Lets hope these new girls can keep the louts out and the beer up to standard. Time will tell but so far looks like a big mistake. Last manager was worth weight in gold.
