Folly
Inn, Napton-on-the-Hill, Warwickshire.
The highlight of an entire pub tour, the Folly Inn
is an old converted farmhouse built in 1852, at the
dead end of a country lane, on the banks of a picturesque
canal. They do not get much better than this!

Crown
& Trumpet, Broadway, Worcestershire.
It is reassuring to see that some pubs, even in tourist
locations, can maintain their integrity in the face
of commercialism. A lovely old pub, low ceilings, good
beer, and great walking country.

Old
Plough, Stoke D’Abernon, Surrey.
The church in Stoke D’Abernon boasts the oldest
brass rubbings in the nation, and the Old Plough Inn.
It has a very nice conservatory on the back (and I normally
hate conservatories slapped onto pubs).

Navigation,
Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire.
There are two pubs in Stoke Bruerne, and this one is
the more family-oriented. It is slightly away from the
main lock and canal museum, but still well worth dropping
in for a pint and a bite to eat.

Boat
Inn, Stoke Bruerne, Northamptonshire.
What a pub! What a location! And rather nice beer too!
Right on the main canal area of Stoke Bruerne, opposite
the canal museum, and surrounded by history. A great
day out in itself!

Old
Mint, Southam, Warwickshire.
This pub is called the old Mint because they really
did mint currency here back in the Civil War in the
1640’s. Now it is a fascinating old pub, complete
with grooves in the wall where soldiers sharpened their
swords.

Bell
Inn, Ladbroke, Warwickshire.
This was once a major coaching in on the old London
Road, and it has successfully kept up with the times.
The food is honest pub grub with the blessed space to
put diners out into a back room!
Pony
& Trap, Chew Magna, Somerset.
Not really in a village at all, out on its own in
the Somerset back roads. They do some excellent pub
food, and the selection of beers maintains the interest.
Crown,
Napton-on-the-Hill, Warwickshire.
Of the four pubs in Napton, this one is the most centrally-located,
and away from the main road. It misses out on the canal
traffic too, so probably caters more to the village
pub-goers.
Abinger
Arms, Abinger Hammer, Surrey.
Poised precariously on the edge of the A25, this pub
was first licensed in 1840, when it was converted from
a tannery. It is now a very nice two-room country pub.
