Britannia

Built c.1830, this became a pub c1858. The bar was extended back c.1960 and refitted but does retain an old baffle in the rear section. A panelled passage runs down the middle of the pub with a hatch to the back of the bar. The star here is the splendid untouched snug on the right with fireplace, fixed bench seating, bell pushes and baffles all from around 1920. The snug is not always open but you can have a look on request. Note the blue plaque celebrating this as 'The Birthplace of J M Dent, eminent publisher'. Joseph Malaby Dent (30 August 1849 – 9 May 1926) was a British book publisher who produced the Everyman's Library series.
