A low-ceilinged boozer on the way to the Castle Inn as you head from the centre of town outwards. They have a modest range of cask ales, nothing too exciting but probably a tick or two for most folks. Prices are fair. A few TVs showing sports. Nice staff, average prices. Decent vibes here, feels somewhat cosy; lots of wood. Perhaps worth a stop if you’re passing by.

A very fast visit. Students’ place. Potbelly Teck’t t’Ride 4,5% (2010).

Old school pub near Magadalene. Now a Taylor Walker pub, but still maintains nice old wooden decoration, friendly service and mid-sized but well chosen selection of ales. Can be rammed full of students.
