Umm. Lots of pine. The toilets were interesting because the corridor and toilets themselves were nicely tiled making me wonder if that's where the decorating budget went. Still, it was a perfectly decent pub.

My first visit since the re-opening. Good pub, good Landlord. good atmosphere. I shall return.
Formerly a Bateman's tied house in Bull Close Road. The pub closed in 2013 and has been bought, renovated and re-opened as a freehouse. The bar has been turned through 90 degrees and the interior is now much lighter with lots of wood. Eight handpumps but only four in use at the moment until trade has been built up, at December 2014. Local CAMRA branch Pub of the Year 2019.
We have visited this pub 6 times, seen 21 different beers and tried 6 of them.
