Brewers' Tudor pub on Fairmile Road. Internally, curving central bar, with eating and drinking areas to left and right, pool at back. Cask ale on offer at my visit: Ringwood Best. For some customer comments, see http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/comments.shtml/2569/ . Sadly, from a thirsty local resident's point-of-view, the pub has closed (2015), despite local objections http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/10899274.Traders_fight_application_to_convert_derelict_Fairmile_pub_into_Co_op_store/ , and has been "revamped" into a Co-op local (see Image).
