The Britannia Inn
This charming, welcoming, and highly-regarded local inn has been a stronghold of cask beer since 1859, earning it a prestigious CAMRA award. The pub has managed to maintain much of its original character and structure from its days as a private residence. It offers a cozy, traditional pub atmosphere with a subtly expanded bar area and a quaint parlour, both of which are accessible from a central corridor. The pub holds historical significance as it was the birthplace of JM Dent, a renowned publisher from the 19th century who was known for his teetotal lifestyle. This adds an extra layer of interest and appeal for visitors. The pub takes pride in its beer selection, offering four rotating guest ales in addition to two regular ales - Camerons Strongarm and the house beer, Brit 163. This diverse range of beers ensures that there is something to suit every palate. In summary, this inn is not just a pub, but a piece of local history, offering a warm and friendly environment, a selection of quality ales, and a unique link to a notable historical figure.
