One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

The public bar in this 1926-built Lacons house is little changed beyond absorption of the off-sales. The counter is original, albeit reduced in size and re-positioned. Other features are fine fielded panelling all round, fixed seating and a good fireplace. The original door, with stained-glass window above, is now out of use after a new internal door was created next to the fireplace. The lounge also has some 1926 fittings but was extended into the former cellar in 1987. The Dining Room was converted from former living accommodation.

General information about historic pub interiors

Built 1926 by Lacons and named in honour of the last chairman of Lacons Brewery, Christopher Kevill-Davies. The public bar at the front is little-changed apart from absorbing the off-sales - originally the counter was further forward and you can see the line of it in the floor and note the fixed seating closest to the counter on both sides is different to the rest of the seating. Retains original counter front albeit reduced in size and re-positioned c.1990, fixed seating, panelling and fireplace. In the lounge / smoke room there is a 1926 tiled and wood surround fireplace but the room is a combination of the lounge and cellar behind and there are modern bar fittings. It has been extended to the rear to create a dining room. Note the colourful 'Smoke Room' and 'Club Room' stained glass windows - the club room was upstairs - now the licensees living room. Closed Mon to Fri lunchtimes - opens at 7 (12 Sat, Sun).

In Gorleston the Three Tuns, 247 High Street still retains two curved bar counters installed c.1960 with Formica & wood tops and panelled counter front with leatherette sections between the 1950s style uprights. The only remaining Victorian fittings are the colourful tiled floor between the servery and the odd etched window. The main bar lost its fine original counter in 1993.
