Wych Elm, Kingston

19th century building of brick rendered over, it was originally three rooms and an off sales. In 1935 changes saw an enlarged saloon bar on the left, a slight change in the position of the off sales, and new inside toilets added.

In recent years a gap has been created in the wall between the front public bar and the saloon bar on the left but a modern folding wooden partition means they can still be separate rooms. There is (part of?) a surviving part glazed partition in the saloon bar but it has been moved to this position.

The bar counter in the former saloon bar part looks old with its decorative brackets and now painted a dark grey colour. The former saloon bar back lower part with arches and decorative console brackets also looks old and painted a dark grey colour. The bar counter and bar back in the front public bar area are modern (and shorter than the 1935 one) as is the left hand bar back top section. All the dado panelling is painted a light grey colour so it is difficult to identify whether part is old (possibly that in the former saloon bar?) and which is modern.
