| British Lion | Boddingtons, John Smith's, Tetley / Carling, Foster's | A friendly street-corner boozer with plain decor well looked after and spotlessly clean. The large open lounge side was not in use when I visited early on a Saturday whilst the bar side was quite busy.

 guest, Jennings Cumberland / Carling, Foster's |
From the outside this free-standing pub looks rather plain. The interior is partly knocked through but retains separate bar and lounge sides, the lounge having two rooms. The decor is very well done and cared for, especially in the rather posh lounge side. It's unusual nowadays to see a pie warmer behind the bar! Last visited 2010. |
299 Nutgrove Road / Fountain Street |
| Elephant |
Thwaites / Carling, Foster's | Knocked through into one large L-shaped room which still seems to retain to some extent a posh end and a plain end, both well cared for.

Elephant Lane / Crown Street |
| Railway Hotel | Greenalls, Stones / Carling | A plain bar side and a nice two roomed lounge side in this traditional street corner ale house. Bowling green at the back. Oversize glasses for a proper pint. Noted closed and boarded up in 2010.

Thatto Heath Road / Springfield Road |
| Sutton Arms | Boddingtons, John Smith's, Tetley / Carling, Foster's | Looks a bit tatty from the outside but when you get in the comfortable but deserted lounge and the plain bar side busy with cheerful locals are both well maintained. The gents is a bit tatty, though.

Sherdley Road / Elephant Lane |
| Vine Tavern | Tetley / Carling | A plain but spotless bar side in this two-sided corner house. The "Cask Ales" sign outside has been misleading for at least thirteen years.

Elephant Lane / South Street |
| York | Boddingtons, John Smith's / Carling, Foster's | Outside a rather fine stone building. Inside a proper multi-room pub with a friendly bar side divided in two by a glazed partition, and a lounge side formed of at least three rooms, all nicely decorated and well cared for. It's a shame the place was totally deserted at 1pm on a Saturday.
