This is what the pub looked like on an old postcard at the beginning of the 1900s – before it was given the crest and columns. Back then it was Old.
Its been boarded up for a couple of months now awaiting further refurbishment. I shouldn’t think the building work will be quite so radical this time round.
I don't know when it'll start or how much it will cost as the last time it was refurbished, it was only superficial stuff that was done. It needs a lot of structural work doing.
