Castle Bar

This iconic pub won a CAMRA design award in 2009 for refurbishment, reflecting an impressive rebuilding. Work to convert a dilapidated shell started in 2007, preserving parts of a facade dating to C17 and older foundations of what was probably a merchant's house originally. Historic features have been conserved in several rooms over three floors. The building is Grade II-listed. There is a courtyard garden. Real ales and ciders and meals are served.
