Walsworth: The Sailor
Building renovation works give the opportunity to fly the flag (or two in this case). Why the Sailor? Well, I read somewhere that at one time the River Ivel Navigation was to be extended to include the Rivers Hiz and Purwell, the latter of which is on the opposite side of the road to the pub.
