Converted 26/6/2018 to offices for the use of next door "Offizone". Closed 26/6/2018. Planning Application DC/070434 | This proposal is for the change of use of a A4 public house to B1 Offices for the use of "Offizone". There is no proposed building work. Granted 18/9/2018. History: the pub was extended to the rear in late 2015 with a lounge-cum-conservatory area being created with a large amount of glazing to bring in extra light. The toilets were relocated upstairs, but there was a disabled toilet downstairs. The remainder of the pub to the front was of a mildly opened-out configuration - smart, but small lounge to the right of the entrance, then to the front of the bar was a small, neat area, while further right was a comfortably furnished room with a feature real fire in place. This area was used for live acts and karaoke too. When the Fairway was created the new owners did a thorough re-fit - new toilets, a new kitchen, new fitted and upholstered bench seating, new décor and lighting, plus an upgraded outside smoking / drinking area. All of the glazing was changed too, and the cellar facilities upgraded. Eight cask beers were available including a permanent mild or stout, where mostly local micros feature prominently in a rotational scheme. The other handpulls dispensed two real ciders. Obviously, trade determined how the beer range fared, as the range and variety had grown over time. Meal times were 12-2 Wed-Fri, 12-6 Sat-Sun (eves 5-8 Thu was curry night). There was live entertainment every Saturday night.
