Black Eagle

Built in 1895, this pub has four small rooms, three of them clustered around a central servery. A triangular tiled porch leads to a small bar on the front left with the original counter incorporating a row of Minton tiles and the original bar back which also serves the tap room on the right. The lounge on the front right is an amalgamation of the outdoor and the lounge - on the bar counter you can see where the partition was situated. This room has the original counter but some tiles were damaged and rest re-used on the rear smoke room counter hence the different tiles on the tap room counter. Original entrance to front right room was on wall near old off-sales door, now blocked-up so the fixed seating in the front of the old door is modern; the bay window and that left of the 1920s tiled and wood surround fireplace is original.

In the rear smoke room the bar counter is larger than originally - the left hand piece is in its original position but the two right hand sections are re-positioning / replacements; the Mintons tiles being transferred from the tap room counter. The bar back fitting in the smoke room is actually the original exterior windows of this room - they were removed to create the doorway to the rear dining room in 1990. On the right is a 1920s tiled and wood surround fireplace and interwar fixed seating. The dining room on the rear right has no old fittings."
