Totally fake but rather well done rustic decor in this large chain pub located on a retail park. The food, from a standard pub menu, looks good. They were doing a roaring trade when I visited on a Wednesday afternoon in 2010, less so on a Thursday in 2019.

The pleasant decor is rather hard to categorise in this enormous pub in the Hungry Horse chain, doing a good trade in food even on a Wednesday lunchtime. The menu looks good value. There's a large kids' playground at the rear.

A plain well looked after boozer knocked through into one room. Naturally packed during "National" meetings, pretty empty and very green when I visited on St Patrick's Day afternoon. A large notice advises that "NO BASEBALL CAPS OR WOOLY HATS ETC ALLOWED".
Noted closed and tinned up in 2018.

Toby Carvery (Rocking Horse) A large modern plastic pub, well looked after. Very quiet on a Wednesday afternoon. The hand pump on the bar is presumably decorative.
