The Mount Inn has a superb snug formed by two high-backed settles attached to the beamed ceiling by iron stays in front of a Victorian range fireplace. This half-timbered building is situated at the end of the main street, not far from the splendid Market Hall. As you enter there is an area laid with diamond shaped panels of stone set on edge where the snug is situated. To the rear is the small green terrazzo-tiled public bar with an early 20th.century wood surround fireplace (the infill is modern), two old curved benches and four Formica top tables.
Whilst the bar fittings were replaced in the early 1970s, there are four carved poker-work panels of local scenes above the counter, which has lower panels of engravings on Aberllefenni slate from the Braichgoch Quarry in Corris, Gwynedd. A slate plaque on the wall states that the artist was A D Woodvine and the engraver was R Whitfield.
The games room on the left is the venue for Medieval Welsh history lessons on a Tuesday night attended by some 30 local people. The lounge/dining room on the right has modern fittings.
