Time for a pint, Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire
Good to see the Horseshoe has reopened after being closed for a few years, although yet another boring, corporate and computer generated pub sign. Pub signs used to be an artform in themselves but now are often reduced to this.
Probably built in the 16th century, the Horseshoe stands on the main road between Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon that passes through Shipston and one of the reasons it became a major coaching centre in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
I hope the pub does well, but if memory serves me right the interior is of little interest, opened up and made largely open plan around the bar.
