YORKSHIRE (EAST) - Beverley, White Horse National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors Part Two 5 Hengate, Beverley, HU17 8BN Tel: 01482 861973 Web site: www.nellies.co.uk Draught Beer & Cider: Samuel Smith's Old Brewery Bitter Public Transport: Railway Station: Beverley Pub Food: Meals Listed Status: Grade II* Something of a Yorkshire institution, "Nellie's" is a "must-see" vernacular gem which has genuine old-fashioned ambience. A one-time coaching house, it has evolved into a warren of stone-flagged and wood-floored rooms, still with gas lighting and warmed in winter by blazing fires in the old hearths. It takes its popular nickname from Nellie Collinson, whose family acquired the pub in 1927 and who was its long-serving and redoubtable licensee until the 1970s. |
