Old Ship

Dating back to 1735 and a Young’s house since 1869, this town centre pub by the House of Fraser store can be seen at the end of the main street. Two ground-floor bars, an upstairs drinking area and a heated, covered courtyard garden, it contains ships’ equipment and memorabilia with an engine-room telegraph built into a bannister. Consistently good pub food is available all day and a Sunday night music quiz is held here. The pub has had major refurbishment and reopened 13th April 2016.
