Crows Nest

This suburban estate pub of spacious proportions and some quality was built in 1957-8 as a pub-cum-hotel by Samuel Smith’s Brewery. The three original pub rooms, planned around a central servery, all have generous fitted seating and deep-windowed bays, giving good natural light. A further lounge bar was created around 1981 from the former hotel dining room (and its toilets) and a new opening, with sliding doors, was formed through to the original lounge. The off-sales became a kitchen some time later. Unspoilt ladies’ and gents’ toilets off both lobbies.
