Trafalgar Arms, PORTSMOUTH, Hampshire

Built in 1926 for Brickwood's and designed by prolific Portsmouth architect A E Cogwell, this house replaced another of the same name that was owned by the local Jewell Brewery.

The interior has changed little in the last few decades.

Consisting of a single L-shaped bar room, the front of house has parquet flooring, with the remainder being carpeted.

Furnishings consist of traditional tables and chairs and vinyl covered bench seating.

A fireplace is the focal point of the raised deck at the front of the pub.

The Trafalgar's most notable features are the wonderful bar fittings, with its ornately-carved pillars and an interesting pot-shelf that is suspended by metal rods from the woodwork above.

There is a surprisingly large, lawned garden at the rear of the pub.
