This was, until 3 months ago, possibly the pub with the best views in Durham - directly overlooking the river Wear from Framwellgate Bridge and overlooked in turn by the castle and the cathedral. The roof terrace was invariably rammed whenever the sun came out over the summer. However, inside it was another pub that didn't offer anything different from the rest of the North Road pubs, being lager and keg only, and was probably a little bit too dependent upon the weekend circuit trade which, in the last year, hasn't been quite enough to keep many boozers open (it was definitely a town, as opposed to gown, pub). As things stand, the pub remains closed, with a large board proclaiming that the owners are ready to listen to all offers. The location might just entice someone to reopen this one, but I won't hold my breath. pablos13 - 6 Dec 2008 09:47 |
