5 mins from Railway Stn
A ten minute walk from Frant railway station, the Brecknock is a traditional country pub on a crossroads in the village centre. It is family run and a warm welcome and good service are assured. Usually at least three Harvey’s cask ales and traditional pub meals, including their renowned Sunday roasts, are available. In the garden there is a large out-building used for special events and the September beer festival, while a converted building in the car park serves as a TV and games room.
Until 2008 this pub had a tiny public bar and behind it a lounge that prior to the 1950s was two small rooms and with its own bar fittings from that date and a Victorian fireplace. The public bar is now much larger as the old counter has been moved back considerably removing a dividing wall and the servery is now situated in what was half of the lounge. The public bar has a bare wood floor, old counter with a lovely set of 4 small handpumps with porcelain handles dated 1953 and old dado panelling. The old bar back was ripped out by the former licensee in 2005 and a grotesque modern one in traditional style added. It is amalgamated with a small room to the right that has old tongue and groove dado, a 30s (or 50s) brick and wood surround fireplace with log fire. The truncated lounge has dado panelling possibly from the 50s or older and includes a small bench in the same style, also an unusual brick fireplace which could be 30s with log fire. No longer inventory-worthy.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 2 regular beers.
