Although this pub is not a listed building, it is a One Star pub on the Campaign for Real Ale’s (CAMRA) National Inventory with an interior of special national historic interest, and the description is as follows: “There is one really stand-out feature in this otherwise modernised pub. This is the remarkable mid-Victorian bar-back. It has three bays stretching right up to the ceiling and they are filled with back-painted glass in green and gold. The stylised foliage bears labels offering the blandishments of 'Jamaica Rum' and 'Superior Scotch': the labels are obscured in the third bay by bottle shelves. The uprights also bear painted glass panels. There are plans to re-site this splendid feature further back in the pub when it is also hoped to reinstate some snob screens which currently languish in the cellar.”
