Pub Layout

The Dyers Arms is a wet led pub which trades from a central bar servicing an open plan area. The bar is kept well and the cellar can be accessed from behind the bar. There is a separate space currently used as a pool room with a games machine to the left side of the pub as you walk in, you can also find a jukebox here. To the right hand side is a cosy open fire in the middle of the lounge area which is occupied by the locals who enjoy the sky sports and darts board and has fixed seating stretching along the right hand wall and under the window, this area has been utilised as the karaoke area. From this side of the bar you can access the ladies and gents toilets.

Leading through to the external area there is a small room which currently houses a sofa and chair, through here you can access the functional beer garden where you will find a smoking shelter and benches, ideal for the summer months.
