  In 1961 the BYSTANDERS FILM CLUB commenced a survey of Norwich public houses.
Unfortunately, by 1968 the challenge remained unfinished and Watney Mann had taken over the local breweries....Toilet facilities (Conveniences) were rated on cleanliness and general standard.
This house was rated as follows:-		  
 
S&P No Draught Cider
Darts Conveniences 3 (5 being the best)
Parking Canned Music
Lions are blue with cold.
Quite cosy.
Nice friendly lounge.
 

  The "White" beer guide of 1977 records:-

A Courage house.

Directors Bitter via compressed air.

Good drinkers local.
Interesting use of compressed air to dispense beer should appeal to the purists (some would say Puritan) who dislike even blanket pressure and invent ridiculous stories about it's effect on the beer.
