i have been told that this pub will be converted to a shop, half of it being a drinking place under the old canal name and the top floor being flats.

Well the ups and downs have continued but my recent visit was hopeful. The ale was a fair price and was well kept. The pub needs a good tidy up, but this is a touchy sunbject for hard pressed publicans, but lets hope the pubco supports the decent people who are giving the old place a go. If I was still local I would be happy to use it - lets hope the locals come back in numbers and liven it up again.

I have used this pub on and off for 30 years and seen changes a plenty. This pub has had its ups and downs but has improved a lot recently. The locals remain a friendly bunch and the saturday night atmosphere is good. If it carries on this way its future as a local looks good.

Very much a local, although by no means one where the music stops and everyone turns to look at the stranger. Ringwood Old Thumper always on, which gets my vote. Usually another couple of guest ales on, too.
