Early evening visit. I was staying nearby - in Nottinghamshire - but crossed the border to find this. A real gem, drinkers in 3 bars inside and more in back yard area. Jaipur went off before I could sample it. Interesting chats with locals - one had just walked the nearby Bennerley Viaduct - another that the hotel was built with 3 storeys but was reduced to 2 for tax reasons!
