On Saturday 27/01/2024 CAMRA Radnorshire went to Knighton to see how things have changed since Covid. Five of us (Chris. Terry, Dave D, Colin and me) arrived at The Banc 5 Broad street at the same time, just past 12.15pm. For me it was my first visit, although Craig has been open for 5 years. It has a nice ceiling and very decorative old heating radiators. The old money vault ( see pic) [[iage:id=32677]] is used as an eating area. Cask Beers were, Ludlow Gold and Wye Valley Moonshot. Then onto the chippy to take into Watsons Ale House, 24 High Street.. We met Carter who has taken over the bar, he has a very positive attitude to real ale. The toilets have been moved from the front room to the back of the building and replaced by an extended bar. It works, as the front room looks spacious and busier. Beers were, Purple Moose Wacky, Glamorgan Welsh Pale ale and one other. Later Terry phoned The Kinsley, Station Road and arranged for the place to open 30 minutes early, otherwise they had 7 minutes to get a drink before the train back to Llandrindod Wells. John Owen has lived 5 doors away all his life and been at the pub for 30 years, sometimes as a pub and a B+B at other times. Beers were, Timothy Taylor Boltmaker Bitter, and Sharps Atlantic Bitter. The pictures show The Banc money vault eating area; Watsons Ale House front room and The Banc beer choice. As we are having these excursions on the THIRD SATURDAY EACH MONTH, the next one is Saturday 17th February. Meet 1.00pm at the Arvon Ales, Llandod. Depending on the beer choice we can always move on to The Temple later. Regards from Dave Gill Camra Radnorshire Branch Secretary
