The Cock Inn
This is a local pub in my hometown. It was always a dirty run down place that I would avoid when possible. It recently received a complete refit and new management. What interested me the most was the exterior; which did not alter apart from new windows. The way that the pubs name was rendered offered something that I had not seen in a while, the classic style public house. Just from the painted sign on the wall it offered a lot more warmth and traditional values; that I appreciated as it is lost in some places due to Weatherspoons. The new style of pub/bars is increasing in popularity as they offer cheaper food and drink.

ReplyDeleteIt's still a shame about the name -or rather the word 'cock' now has such rude conotations. I wonder how the slang came about?
