Classic Art Deco brick pub designed by E. B. Musman for Benskin's Watford brewery and built in 1936. (The similarly styled but larger Comet at Hatfield is much altered inside). The public bar on the left still retains its L-shaped layout, windowsills which bulge out to form tables, two marble-slab fireplaces but the bar counter has been reduced in size and looks modern, also the bar back fitting is new. The present lounge / dining room was formerly two rooms - a saloon bar with private bar behind and has some modern Art Deco-style fittings from a refit in 2010 and an original marble-slab fireplace.
