John,
It used to be a regular haunt of mine back in the 70's. Introduced to it by the son of Mr Coward down at the Docks, then we used to go on the Sunday nights for the folk nights that used to be held there. Probably one of the best pints of 6X in the area, and as for their cider................................
I think we were some of the "favoured" sometimes as we used to get homemade bread, cheese and pickled onions some visits, normally when it wasn't busy.
Never got on with The Arms, further down thev lane though.
Happy days.
