Hidden gem on the hillside above the town.

Traditional interior comprising two fairly small rooms, bar in each, books and board games available for customer use.

Called in about 6:30 sat evening, already half full, 5 hand pulls available.
Had a pint of Brimstone - nice enough, companions went with TT Landlord, claim it was the best they'd ever had!

Will make a return visit for sure, one of those pubs that just felt right!

Tucked in amongst the narrow roads up behind County Hall, this is well worth seeking out and staying a long while. The Bass here is so highly regarded it sits proudly alone in the larger (but still small) of the two rooms whilst the six other ales , mostly from the wider edges of the GK stable, jostle for position in the other smaller room. Superb views across the valleys and hills beyond. A very decent pint of Jarrow Rivet Catcher was had this time, together with a swift half of the superb Bass. Excellent.

Ignore the 'don't ignore the Greene King sign' comment. A nice enough old style pub but although they had 5 ales on they were a limited 'mainstream' choice. Landlord, Hydes 1860 whatever, Rev James, Ruddles and Black Sheep. Tried a hazy, though palatable Black Sheep - didn't really fancy another. Pub may be okay but ale wasn't anything exceptional - wouldn't say it was worth the trek (uphill) from town to.

Exceptional beer-drinkers pub (ignore Greene King sign), Bass excellent, with great views to the hills.

Stunning view .. and the most friendly of atmospheres.
