The Crown & Anchor in the evening: a snug room with a long oak bar with a dark bronze top and six tan leather stools, bronze shelves of bottles softly lit against deep green panelling, and a row of ribbed glass pendants. A green leather bench along the back wall, a wood-burning stove glowing in a stone surround, wide oak boards with pale limestone flags in front of the bar, and two small round tables with bentwood chairs and lamps in the window.

What it really is Pub
Front Bronze and glass
Side North, number 2 of 19 walking the street clockwise from the north-west
Frontage 5 m
Floor area about 40 m², from the model

A bronze front that keeps a pub's furniture: a painted sign hanging from an iron bracket, flower baskets either side, etched lower glass, a brass rail across the windows and a REAL ALE board on the pavement. It began as a Victorian corner pub front and went bronze with the rest in rev N.

The room behind it has its own page under behind the fronts: The Crown & Anchor, modern pub.

The north side at sunset, looking east along the pavement. The Albion Lounge, The Crown & Anchor and Fairbairn & Vine Wine Merchants in dark bronze fronts with lit fascias and glimpses of bar and bottles inside, then Trattoria Lucia with its red script fascia and red and white striped awning, then Hartley's Bakery. Bistro tables with green chairs and candles along the wide pavement, a bay tree in a pot, a menu board, granite setts in the foreground and the limestone grid and floating roof above.

The north side straight on from above the courtyard, in summer sun. Five shopfronts left to right: The Albion Lounge, The Crown & Anchor, Fairbairn & Vine Wine Merchants, Trattoria Lucia with its red and white striped awning, and Hartley's Bakery, with cafe tables along the wide pavement. Above, the upper floor of tall bronze windows between limestone fins, a clerestory band and floating roof plates, and three slate roofs stepping, with one chimney. The lightwell's glass balustrade is in the lower left and the water bowl at the foot.
