| Very friendly landlord, and some well kept beer. A bit disconcerting to see the net overhead catching pieces of falling plaster from the remarkable ceiling! Surely funds could be found for its restoration? arihall - 11 Jul 2011 18:22 |
| Popped in for a quick pint before the football and although the beer range wasn't as extensive as some other pubs the quality was fine. Interesting bar with the ceiling being the obvious feature! The locals were very friendly and veen organised taxis for us. Cheers! mcroyal - 15 Mar 2011 13:55 |
| I really like this place. Good beers including some LocAle options (Dunham Massey on my last visit). Re previous comment, I think they've decided to keep the ceiling as it is as a little nod to the pub's history. Could be wrong, but that's how I've interpreted it!

| It's a great shame someone hasn't the dosh to renovate the ceiling damaged in a fire. I really liked this place and met a guy there who knew the history of the local boozers which was very helpful. Beer couldn't be faulted. JBGatelad - 13 Mar 2011 13:07 |
| This pub has 3 rooms. The main bar has an impressive high ceiling, that is presumably original. Exposed brickwork high on the walls also lends a traditional air. A vault and another smaller bar are much more modern in character. On our visit, all handpumps were clipped. Beers were Ossett Snow Drop, Howard Town Wren's Nest, Copper Dragon Black Gold & Prospect Silver Tally. The cider on offer was Saxon Part Time Lover. There's plenty of good pubs in this area. So this is most definitely worth a stop on any local crawl. blue_scrumpy - 14 Feb 2011 21:18 |
