Cross Keys, Upwood

Village pub that retains fittings from late 1930s and 1963. The off-sales hatch is stil there in the sizeable lobby with a quarry tiled floor. To the right the public bar has a 1930s parquet floor, brick fireplace that could be from the 1930s, the bar back is of Art Deco style so could be 1930s, the bar counter is from the 1963 changes. On the far right a gap leads to the very small snug on a lower level with a parquet floor, the wood surround fireplace could be from the 1930s and there are two (1920's?) bentwood benches. On the left is the lounge which has been extended to the rear in recent times and acts primarily as a dining room. It has a red quarry tiled floor, a floor to ceiling brick fireplace with small cupboards either side which looks 30s, another bentwood bench, a curved bar counter that could well date from the 1930s, but the bar back is mostly modern. Closed Mondays, closed Sun evenings.
