A lovely little pub, built in 1912 and carefully restored in 2004. You are greeted by a superb green-tiled frontage celebrating Bass, then you find more tiles in both the entrance lobbies. The bar counter with fluted pilasters is superior Edwardian work, as is the delicate mirrored bar-back whose superstructure is supported on elaborately turned posts surmounted by miniature acroteria. The snug, rear left, is a conversion from residential accommodation. Through an arch, the rear right-hand room has old fixed upholstered seating with bell pushes. Some of the original glass has been re-located.
A lovely little pub built in 1912. The superb green-tiled frontage proclaims 'Bass Only' and incorporates red Bass triangles. There are tiles in the entrance lobbies behind the doors. The bar counter with fluted pilasters and the delicate mirrored bar-back (complete with drawers) are good original Edwardian work. The bar back is a wooden superstructure supported on elaborately turned posts surmounted by miniature acroteria (architectural ornamentation). The snug rear-left was originally private accommodation. The rear right-hand room, through an arch, retains fixed upholstered seating with bell-pushes. Some original glass has been re-sited. The pub was carefully restored and reopened in March 2004.
