Perhaps Laxfield in Suffolk is a bit closer than the Hebrides then.....
On a Tuesday, from lunchtime through to about seven, there's always what
amounts to a ceilidh in the Low House. (AKA Kings Head)
Instrumentals, usually some visitors, and some have come from foreign
shores - specially. Folk songs, pseudofolk songs, verse stories, verse,
stories, shaggy dog stories, etc, etc.
Good beer, (Adnams) gravity delivered from tapped casks in the tap room.
No bar. The pub is more-or-less exactly as it was before the war, with
tall-backed pine settles, open fire, etc. Good food at reasonable
prices.
And no, I'm not the landlord and I haven't got shares in the place.
