Victorian pub originally that had at least three separate spaces divided by partitions as indicated by the three front doors, but now one room. It retains a fine curved Victorian bar-back fitting with the original makers label. A door in the-bar back fitting leads to an office behind. The bar counter is original but has new panels on the front. A shame about the intrusive pot shelf which hides much of the bar back from view. The fixed seating in bays looks to date from the 1960s or later. There is a small games room to the rear with a serving hatch. Toad in the hole is still played here. New windows with transfer decoration with the name of the pub and pictures of Queen Victoria are a nice touch.
Victorian built pub that originally had three rooms (or two rooms and off sales) divided by partitions as indicated by the three front doors but the main bar has been one room for many years. It retains a fine curved Victorian bar back fitting with the original makers label "Sanders & Sons, 228 High Holborn, London 1". A door in the bar back fitting leads to an office behind. The original bar counter has new panels on the front - a photograph on the wall from the early 1960s shows the bar back and counter before the additions. The fixed seating in bays looks to date from the 1960s or later. The pub has a small separate rear room which houses the local pub game of Toad in the Hole.
