No Smoking Gallery Lounge

The corner gallery lounge in the 101 is a cosy, no-smoking room, set out with leather armchairs and bookcases to create a relaxing and peaceful area.

The room is used as a small gallery display area by local artists, the current exhibition can be viewed here...

This room was originally used as a service room probably from about 1850 when the pub opened. One of our older members remembers being brought here on his father's shoulders with a large jug to get filled with ale to take home for tea. He was three or four years old, in 1923!

We've revealed the original stone fireplace and decorated in a Victorian heritage green and red,  to try to recreate some of the original atmosphere of 150 years ago.
