| Furnaceman's Arms | Tetley / Carling | In 2000 I described this three-roomed pub as scruffy. The interior has been done up since then and is well cared for and very nicely decorated in traditional style.

This very large nicely appointed pub has a partially knocked through plastic-traditional interior. It serves a fine pint, and the food is popular. LSTV. There's a nice-looking beer garden at the back.

The plain bar side is a little worn, but clean and tidy, while the lounge looks more salubrious. When we asked for bitter in the bar we were not offered the cask beer and it was only later we spotted the operational hand pump in the lounge, so I cannot comment on the quality of the ale.
