12:00 Planned to get some lunch, but only available Mondays according to the bar-maid. I was the only customer. The Mickles casks over the bar are noteworthy.

The exterior was covered in scaffolding and the pub appeared to be closed, but a notice on the door said "Business as Usual" so I entered. The pub was packed with people watching football on the pub's television, but I managed to find some space in the room at the back. It was not possible to see all the cask beers on offer because of cider drinkers standing in front of the pump clips.
