About The Venue

The Jolly Collier is housed in a Grade II listed Georgian building originally established as a hotel in 1803.

Inside, decor sticks to tradition with wooden fittings, leather chairs, and vintage signage that matches long-standing local pub culture. Warm lighting creates a cozy feel throughout the evening hours. Background music plays at moderate levels, keeping noise lively but not loud enough to disrupt conversation.
