Bull's Head, Craswall

An 18th-century farmhouse pub until the farm was sold off in 1997 when the pub was upgraded without being spoilt. The original public bar has barely altered with its two ancient stone steps down to the flagstone-floored small room. It retains its old stone fireplace in the corner with a lovely old stove and three old settles including a high-backed one. Service is from a couple of small hatches cut into the wall to the cellar; the one on the right was created in 1997 from the door to the servery. In the cellar servery are some very old bar-back shelves and a stillage with casks of beer and poly casks of ciders. Note the old Doulton sink in the front window - its original use is not clear but it is now popular with cyclists for filling up their water bottles! Up half a dozen well worn steps on the left and through a low doorway is the original second room now used by diners. It has a flagstone floor, beamed ceiling and old stone fireplace with a new food counter added in the mid-1990s. A third room on the left has been brought into use in recent years. Outside gents' and ladies' toilets. Closed Sunday evenings and all day Monday (except Bank Holidays).
