Planning consent granted 05/01/24 for conversion to residential (HMO) following arson attack in April 2023..
Formerly a two-roomed pub with a lively public bar and quieter lounge at the rear which is a short walk from the town-centre. Dating back to 1936, the Falcon was in the same family for over 30 years. Old pub memorabilia adorn both rooms where keenly priced beers are served. There is a beer garden at the rear of the pub. There is plenty of on-street parking available.
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
UPDATE MAY 2024 Suffered a seious fire in 2023 which destroyed most of the interior. Planning permission granted in January 2024 for conversion to a House in Multiple Occupation.
Since it was constructed in 1936, only the lounge has seen significant modernisation. The corridor leading all the way through from the front door has a splendid, boldly-patterned tiled floor and half-height terrazzo wall tiling. The same flooring extends into the excellent public bar which has embossed wallpaper on the walls and ceiling, a heavily embossed frieze with vaguely organic patterns,a sturdy pine bar counter with matching bar back and plentiful original bench seating. In the same family ownership for over 30 years.
Built in 1936 and run by the same family for over 30 years. The corridor leading from the front door all the way to the back has a splendid tiled floor - bold patterning with black and yellow overlapping squares on a pinky-red background. The same tiles adorn the public bar and the gents (which has a fine set of four original urinals). The corridor also sports terrazzo-covered walls to half height and a double-door part way along with leaded glazed panel above. The excellent public bar seems little altered since construction. Embossed wallpaper decorates both walls and ceiling plus a heavily embossed frieze with vaguely organic patterns. The sturdy pine bar counter has a matching bar back complete with glass shelves and mirrors. A small section of more recent wood wainscoting can be seen near the dartboard and the row of tiles above the plentiful original bench seating is also newish. The lounge was modernised in the 1960s/1970s and contains nothing of interest.
This Pub serves 3 changing beers and 1 regular beer.
