===== Colin, 9 December 1999 ====

Before the day before yesterday, this was a heavily folk music oriented pub under Irish management. They had Famous Oxford Irish People like Bernard O'Donoghue turning up on Bloomsday and everything. The day before yesterday, however, the old landlord walked out, and a manager was installed by New Morrells.


At the moment, it's a two bar pub, a public bar on Jeune Street with a pool table and a darts board, decorated with old maps of the British Isles and Oxfordshire, and a lounge bar with a fire on St Clements decorated with those brass plates with ships on them. Two casks set into the wall, one labelled Morrells 5401 and the other Morrells 5041. There used to be a huge collection of jugs hanging from hooks in the ceiling, but they've gone now.
