Royal Oak

There's plenty of Brewer's Tudor dark beams in this pub, and an original "Bass on Draught" window survives at the front, although sadly Bass is no longer available here. This is a small corner-site pub which has the look of always having been a basic boozer. It's certainly one now, and that's no bad thing. A couple of TVs show live sports. Furnishings couldn't be more traditional - soft red upholstered banquettes combined with standard issue tables and chairs, plus some tall stools at the bar of course. This is a friendly locals' pub.
