Converted church with a painted ceiling depicting a blue sky with fluffly white clouds. Wrought iron staircase leads up to more seating on the balcony. Corner booths on the ground floor are sought after with good high backed arm chairs and beautiful wood carving

Fabulous redeveloped Wetherspoons in an old church. Booth type seating around the edges with excellent wrought iron staircases leading to the gallery. Tends to be for younger drinkers, but the decor is superb
