comments - Shropshire Gold -
Jan 2006- The Shropshire Gold and the Golden Thread are delicious. Abbey Gates and Lemon Dream were also on. Beer Garden is mainly smokers during the bad weather. A smoking shelter should be built when planning permission is granted - Jul 2007 - John and Tunni are back and recently taken over the pub again after a couple of years in the sun. Shropshire Gold and Golden Thread always on and excellent. Lemon Dream and Razzmatazz also on. Now having occasional guest ales. Small beer festival planned for end April 08 with 5/6 guest ales. Beer garden being rebuilt from bottom up. Fortnightly quizzes on Sundays - Mar 2008 |

| Banks's pub. Handy for the railway station on Castle Gates. Collection of Victoriana, books, pots and other curios. William Morris wallpaper adds to the mood. Comfortable lounge with a real fire. Good value food served. Beer pretty ordinary. Pool room. Buffalo horns above the bar. Tel - 01743 344148. Visited Aug 2005 |
