| Previously named the Chase, this pub got a hefty makeover a year or so ago and whilst it has been renamed, it still has a horse racing theme and a distinct Irish feel although it not what you would generally label an Irish pub. Racehorse prints jockey for attention with a sizeable water jug and ashtray collection (so that’s what happened to them all). An ornate and intricate wooden cabinet behind the bar also caught my eye. The interior is probably a bit too bright and the newish feel from the refurb is still evident but overall it has a pleasant enough ambience without there being anything exceptional about it. 2 Ales – nothing spectacular (Speckled Hen and Youngs) but of decent enough quality and price. It’s not really a pub that is worthy of a specific trip or an evening session but fine for a crawl or to break up a hard day’s shopping. RogerB - 31 Mar 2008 18:41 |

| ONCE OWNED BY CHARLES "SCOTTY" WHITE AND HIS WIFE MAUREEN WHITE, THIS PUB WAS VERY MUCH A REGULARS PUB. WITH IT'S WELCOMING STAFF THAT WERE FAMILY, IT HAD A POOL TABLE, DARTS AND MACHINES. IT SERVED QUALITY BEERS RANGING FROM FOSTERS TO GUINESS CIDER TO THE SOFT DRINKS OF COKE OR LEMONADE. PLUS BOTTLED BEERS AND BOTTLED ALCOHOL. THERE WAS NEVER ANY TROUBLE HERE; IF YOU WANTED A QUIET DRINK THIS WAS THE PLACE TO DO IT. NOW IT IS OWNED BY MY EX-GIRLFRIENDS MOTHER AFTER THE PASSING AWAY OF SCOTTY EARLIER THIS YEAR, AND IT'S TRADITIONS THAT SCOTTY HAD BROUGHT TO THE PUB STILL REMAIN.
