Pub Lewes-ish

[Peter Grummit]

We went to the Giants Rest in Wilmington. Some nice Long Blonde form the Long Man brewery and decent food. Most important of all the crumblies liked it. Rather than drive along the A27 to get there we drove up from the A259 through Litlington, which has to be one of the prettiest roads in Sussex and then back via Alfriston which went down well too.

Glad you and your folks liked it Scampi.

But we, the good people of Sussex, will NEVER call it that!

In the same way that the Palace Pier will never be called Brighton Pier.

Didn't the Giant's Rest use to be the Black Horse?

I don't know about that, but when i used to drink in there in the 80's, it was called the Wilmington Arms.

The Sussex Ox used to be the Royal Oak anyway.
