The White Hart Pub

A self proclaimed pub on ancient grounds with a lurid doorway into a woody floored venue. Down this corridor there are tables either side and a bar on the right. The bar is littered with social friend pictures, youthful faces of the clientele, clearly a community pub. At the back the surprise of a more grand living room, [...]

Ye Olde Mitre Pub

I raise my hand and admit I had to be led to this pub. It is sandwiched between a church and high rise modern buildings, claiming to be a five hundred year old tavern and every sense of the place supports this claim. The Ye Olde Mitre has a collection of black [...]

Ye Olde Mitre Inn

Wayhay its another old fashioned pub where they not only give you ‘the eye’ but you get the full ln stare and the “i think you should leave because your not local” look. I didn’t have much of choice to go there on the one time I did because it was part [...]
