GLASGOW AND WEST OF SCOTLAND - Larkhall, Village Tavern National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors Part One 3-5 London Road, Larkhall, ML9 1AQ Tel: 01698 883463 Draught Beer & Cider: No real ale Public Transport: Railway Station: Larkhall Pub Food: No food Listed Status: Grade C(s) Popular drinker's pub in a late 19th-century sandstone building, last fitted out during inter-war times in island-bar style. The counter has ribbed panels apart from the front section, which may indicate the loss of a jug and bottle. The modest island gantry with space for staff to walk through the central part has an old till drawer that was in use up to 2000. There are wood-panelled walls to picture-frame height all around; fixed, slatted benches; a 1920s-style tiled and wood surround fireplace; two old brewery mirrors, and Murray's window screens and a decorative cornice. The partitioned area in the far right corner is a spirits cupboard, and has a '5' on the door. There were two tiny snugs at the rear but both are now used for storage. Some customers still get table service on a shout of 'Hoy'. |
