Pub sport lovers can test their dart and pool skills, thanks to the addition of three practice dartboards accompanying one primary ‘match’ dartboard, complementing the existing pool table, which is free to play all day on Monday.

The additional dartboards will form part of a new darts area where locals are invited to find their inner Luke Littler, while the boards will be complete with pristine LED lighting.
