Although this pub is not a listed building, it is on the Campaign for Real Ale’s (CAMRA) Local Inventory with an interior of local historic interest, and the description is as follows: "Now single room but was two – two different ceiling styles with more detail on the left one. Possibly a vestibule lost. Fielded paneling on the walls is painted off white. There was some attractive tiling on the wall by the bar back – but taken away recently (from London Pubs Group crawl - has attractive tiles on one wall). Wonderful four-arched wooden bar-back of c.1900 with cut-glass mirrors and delicate metal sconces but the top section appears to have been shortened by removal of bays – there is a join half way which would not have been the case in Victorian times. JRW insistent that the bar back is a 1970s reproduction one? Lower bar back is all modern. Counter and top are old but front is painted a dull blue-grey and has been truncated on the right hand side. Note also the magnificent lantern outside the main entrance."
