Pavement Gate
Formerly the Owen Glendower, but refreshed and renamed in 2006 back to the name the pub had in the 1970's. Ordinary beer - just Boddingtons – not as good as it should be. Is this because Boddies is now brewed in Wales? Pool table. Beer garden and children’s playing area. Restaurant are and separate bar. Food served. Situated on the A458 Shrewsbury to Welshpool road. Tel - 01743 850309. Visited Aug 1999 and Aug 2005
