Stopped here a few years ago on our LandsEnd/John O'Groats cycle ride. Was hoping to stay the night as one of those old signs said accommodation. Turned out they hadn't provided accommodation for quite a few years so ended up camping just down the road. A lovely old pub and just across the lane is another nice pub, the Red Lion.

What a fantastic building

Well kept beer and always a warm welcome

Lovely inn, lovely owners. Rosie is the best cook in the whole world.

Charming. In my own amateur way, I would concur that was originally a house. It had something of a "hall house" feel to it. The England I would like to live in, is the one portrayed in 1950s artwork! It must take you so long to find all these archive references - it's really excellent.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Yes I think I had seen some fanciful references claiming it might have been a pub for 500 years or some such but more reliable sources said that other pub in the village - The Greyhound Inn (alas no longer extant) - was older, and it just didn't seem yo me like it would have been a substantial enough settlement in, say, the 17th century to sustain two inns. I may have asked before but I wonder if you're a fan of Brian Cook Batsford? He had a way of making English rural scenes look almost painfully nostalgic. It's a bit harder to do the research for pubs outside of London! A mixed blessing perhaps - they are at once less perturbed, but simultaneously less well documented.

Very interesting building. Particularly appreciated the views further away as it accentuated the marvelous lack of symmetry of the facade. Two pints? What a wonderful recommendation for the beer😂

Tweedy back on the case after a well deserved respite, this time with a lovely country spot that has all of the charm and understated character that an American like myself, seeks out in order to soak up and immerse in the elegant simplicity of British culture. I've had the Three Tuns and it is indeed eminently quaffable.

Thanks Al - this was just a quick one to fill in the gap a bit, I'm hoping I might be able to get another London pub tour done this week. I was a bit surprised by the sweetness in Three Tuns XXX at first, but then when I read that it derives from a 17th Century recipe it started to make sense - I can imagine beer would have tasted a bit sweeter back then. An important source of calories after all!

A great grandmother grew up there - we had a photo from the late 19th century and this was displayed in the pub. Not been in for a while, hopefully our photo is still gracing the bar.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

That's wonderful to have that family connection! I hope the photo is indeed still there - I get the sense the landlady is not one to change things unnecessarily.

Makes me want to visit

Hi John. Any pub that has architecture best described as “higgledy piggledy” is instantly elevated to “must visit status”. What a gem of a regional country inn. 👏👏👍😀👌🍺

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

My uncle told me that anecdote about the chimney stacks and that apparent "law" (?) that being able to build one in a single night entitled to continue with the rest of the house unopposed. I'm not completely convinced it's genuine (neither was he) but it would partly explain some of these rather haphazard constructions. Either way it's amazing how long lived these buildings are considering their often very irregular construction!

Great to see you travel up to Herefordshire, thanks for sharing, had many a pint in the New Inn over the years.

@Wattoo76 2 месяца назад

thats probaly the finest pub I have seen on your channel so fare what a cozy looking inn.... just stunning

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Yes alas not much in the way of timber framed buildings in London nowadays! ...and none that remain are as unspoilt as this!

@garrymartin6474 2 месяца назад

That pub looks absolutely delightful, it must be a wonderful place to spend an evening.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Or even a lunchtime!

Short vacation! Already back at it. 😁 That is a fantastic pub!

@davidberlanny3308 2 месяца назад

Hi John, you could smell the interior!! What a fascinating building with lots of history too. Reminded me a bit of the Weald and Down museum at Singleton a great place for walking and wild camping😉😉 I liked the way you highlighted the text from the historical documents you often dont get enough time to see them. As always really well researched. I guess you just had time afterwards to amble down to the river and greet the ladies!! All the best!!

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks David! Yes this was indeed the same day as I filmed that Burgundy video with the sheep down by the stream. I felt a bit spoilt really - a beautiful pub at lunchtime and a lovely bit of countryside for a glass of wine in the early evening!

As I watch I’m having a “British style bitter” called “third sally” from OEC brewing out of Oxford Connecticut here in the states. Love the videos and will move on to your latest pub crawl video after this one

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks Kevin! My first ever trip to America was to visit a friend in Connecticut (Wallingford if I recall correctly?) at the tender age of 19 and I think I broke 5 state laws in the space of that short trip. Who could possibly have predicted that drinking beer on a beach would be illegal? I met some lovely people though, who seemed to be able to enjoy their lives despite all those onerous laws.

@JohnAleman1 2 месяца назад

I visited here about 15years ago log fire burning on a cold winter night very atmospheric it hasn't changed at all which is good was worried it may have been turned into one of them gasto places another interesting vlog 🍻

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Yes definitely the sort of pub which I can imagine really shines in winter when the fire is lit!

@WalksInCamera 2 месяца назад

Some lovely historic buildings in Herefordshire. I once did a stag weekend in Leominster although recollections of the weekend are now rather vague but it had some nice pubs. Agree with searching out grapefruitless IPAs - there are so many about these days!

@liamkatt6434 2 месяца назад

Great find. That particular version of 'Rules of the Inn' first started to appear in pubs around 1972. Despite the atrocious type face for '1786', people have over the decades assured me that they are 'very old' especially when someone has taken the trouble to frame them. The rougher pubs usually had them affixed to the wall with drawing pins or sellotape. They were sold in all manner of tacky gift shops and some old pubs even sold them. Sadly, now after 52 years they are becoming 'old'.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Yes I suppose I've seen those posters enough that they've developed a sort of warm familiarity, but I doubt their authenticity. Quite often up on the wall in the gents toilets!

@RighteousReverendDynamite 2 месяца назад

What a refreshing tour! Such a great and upkept building and interior. Chamfered beams are a friend of tall people and their dented foreheads. Nice Spring weather too. ABV an easy 4.3% on the XXX Three Tuns (1642). From the website, it is based on an ale recipe from that era. It is nice to see the very old wooden market square stall still up and used. I few of those videos on various Cotswold villages have a few of them that are locally famous. It is still a funny thing to me, anyways, that roads and public and private village buildings really did not have any buffer or sidewalk between them and wonder how many homeowners over the centuries were startled awake at night by carriage wheels on wagons or wing mirrors on cars scraping along your living room wall. or just the rando dude looking into your window while going past.

Hello from Calgary, AB!! I’m obsessed with the tours and the history. Wish I could sit and share a pint with you sir 🍻 cheers from your favorite AmeriCanadian

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks Tiffany! Not much of a tour on this occasion - just one pub! I'm hoping to have another London pub tour out by the end of this week.

@eddavis1832 2 месяца назад

I’ve yet to have the pleasure of visiting Pembridge. You definitely encountered a real jewel in the New Inn. I’m truly green with envy. I have, though, visited nearby Hereford where I recommend The Bull’s Head and The Harewood End Inn. I regret that I have yet to try a Three Tuns ale. It’s on my short list. Great choice, Tweedy…Cheers!!! 🍻

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks Ed - I've been to quite a few rural pubs in Herefordshire over the years but I don't think I've ever explored the city of Hereford itself (on the pub front) so those recommendations are much appreciated!

@RighteousReverendDynamite 2 месяца назад

Definitely visit the St. Mary's Church across the street. The detached Belltower is from 13th Century. The church interior is very nice with unusual twin cinquefoil clerestory windows at end of nave as it merges with the chancelry's lower ceiling giving an anthropomorphic illusion of 2 eyes over big arched mouth when looking towards the high altar... the illusion being enhanced by 2 or pints of Three Tuns XXX! You wonder how many weddings with the receptions in the New Inn have taken place over the years...

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks RRD! Yes we did a quick tour of the church - we were at the pub with my uncle who has a keen interest in ecclesiastical architecture so he practically insisted! Detached belltowers are an interesting phenomenon - I'm sure there must be other examples but I've only ever seen them in Herefordshire and Italy!

Lovely 😊 Have been in there👍 Wasn’t expecting a video for a couple of weeks! Bonus!! Top stuff!! You might be interested in visiting The Fleece at Bretforton near Evesham while you are in the Midlands. Owned by the National Trust 👍 Keep up the good work as always 🍻

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Thanks Paul! I'd really love to do a tour of Herefordshire's finest at some point but the transport logistics (and the fact I usually have family in tow when I'm in that part of the world) make getting to more than one pub at a time a bit difficult!

@DovidM 2 месяца назад

Garry Hogg was quite prolific. He also wrote Inns and Villages of England.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

Prolific is definitely the word! I really enjoyed some of his walking books too - "And Far Away" is a particular favourite, he trailblazed Offa's Dyke as a walking route about a quarter of a century before the official national trail was created.

@mancroft 2 месяца назад

How do you find all these early archive references to the pubs you visit? Must take days.

@TweedyPubs 2 месяца назад

I use a combination of sources and there's a surprising amount available electronically / online - newspapers.com and Google Books are very useful. The Ancestry website is also helpful for things like censuses and directory listings, although much more geared for searching for people rather than places. The London Gazette (more of a government record than a newspaper really) is also searchable online. Plus I have a couple of groaning bookshelves of musty old books about pubs!
