King and Queen Great landlord friendly bar staff. You will enjoy it.
Apart from being the pub where Peta and myself have been running the Musical traditions club since 1990. The room upstairs has a considerable folk pedgigree. Martin Carthy ran a club there in the 60,s indeed it was there he met Bob Dylan in the winter of 62 when Dylan was over doing a radio prog for the BBC. Strangely enough when Keith Summers and myself first found the pub we did not know of its history we only found out later.
We presented the landlord with a photo of a very young looking Dylan singing in the club room possibly from the same occassion mentioned above. If you go ask someone to point the photo out to you.
