Unique gem of a pub unscathed by the passage of time, having many artefacts including, hunting scenes, McLachlan cartoons, farming implements and taxidermy exhibits. The cul-de-sac Main Street was once part of an ancient trackway used by drovers who sought their pleasures here. Local charities benefit from proceeds of Onion Sunday when judging of the annual onion growing competition takes place at the pub. Comprising a public bar, lounge bar and block paved patio with garden furniture and various planters. Unfortunately there is no public transport to Illston.
â1â on the door to the front room with a red and black quarry tiled floor, old panelled dado but the small bar counter is no older than 30 years says the women serving behind the bar as it replaced a smaller one across the short passageway from the public bar servery; also bar back shelving, she claims, is of no great age â it certainly doesnât look that old. The main bar has another quarry tiled floor, a brick bar which is no older than the 1960s (possibly between 1965 and 1970 we were advised) and a brick fireplace that could date from the 1950s (or later). There is a small area to the rear and up to 30 odd years ago in the gap between the bar and the rear section there was a short partition projecting half way across to which a dartboard was affixed. Note the floor in the main bar which indicates the presence of a partition wall creating a passage â this was removed well before the 1960s, we were told; the door into the main bar was originally further back from the road.
