Never been in a TT tied house to my knowledge before. Grand place albeit with a distinctive corporate feel. Full range of six TT ales plus a new collaboration. Chalkboard with a record of “the number of Timothy Taylors championship beers we sold last week”: 2913!

The pub is found in Skipton, North Yorkshire, BD23 1HY.

Large pub diner in Sheep Street. Small front bar with a few tables leading through to the long servery area with 7 handpumps. Modernised but with evidence of genuine oak beams above. A large restaurant area to the rear and some seating outside on decking. Lots of evidence of its Timothy Taylor heritage including an honours board listing all the awards won by TT ales going back to the mid-19th century.

We have visited this pub once, seen 7 different beers and tried 2 of them.
