Historic Interest
Originally called the Union Arms to commemorate the 1707 Act of Union between England and Scotland, this basic single bar corner pub was rebuilt in 1878 and renamed in 1960 after the famous champion bare knuckle prize fighter nicknamed the Black Diamond, who had been its landlord from 1820 to 1838. "Cribb's Parlour" was mentioned in Thackeray's Vanity Fair and the pub was also referenced by Conan Doyle.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 4 regular beers.
