Converted 20/4/2020 to restaurant use. Closed 19/11/2019 awaiting new licensee by then owners, Hydes, then re-opened briefly in early 2020 till Covid-19 lockdown took hold. Planning Application 131678/FO/2021 | Conversion of public house to form 13 residential apartments involving the erection of a two storey rear extension and roof top extension following demolition of existing outriggers, elevational alterations, laying out of car park, landscaping and cycle storage. Refused 17/6/2022. History: large corner house with lounge room, vault, and upstairs meeting room. The lounge was pleasantly furnished and, like most pubs these days, it had been opened out over the years. The spacious area was broken up into separate spaces by means of low walls and dividers. A separate large vault was accessed through a door by the side of the bar. It had a comfy, lived-in appearance complemented by friendly and chatty service. Note the fenced off benched seating area on the forecourt. Latterly promoted itself as a daytime cafe as well. As of early 2017, the Hydes cask beers were returned to the bar after a fallow period of keg-only beers.
