This Wetherspoons pub opened on 12 February 2007. The pub is situated in the old Kwikfit tyre centre which used to be Fairman's Garage, a car showroom, and dates from 1933. Jack Fairman was an early motor racing driver who partnered Stirling Moss in several endurance events, and his history is told on the walls of the pub, which is to be found just off the town centre and close to the station. The single large room retains an Art Deco feel and despite the dark wood panelling feels light and airy. Wooden railings create partitions with fruit machines in an unobtrusive corner and TV screens on one wall showing sport but without sound. There is a small outside area for smokers. Three plasma screens show sport, and food is served all day. Outside is a small area for smokers. The four guest beers are often from local breweries.
