Distinctive Edwardian pub constructed in 1913 by Brampton Brewery Co Ltd. Elaborate glazed brick & terracotta elevations showcasing typical Edwardian detailing.

16. The Rectory, Church Way, Chesterfield
Distinctive 1930s pub. The building’s frontage makes a positive contribution to the setting of the grade I listed Church of St Mary & All Saints (aka the Crooked Spire) and wider conservation area. Also has group value with the adjacent Parish Centre and No.33 Church Way which were constructed at the same time and in a similar style. Photo: Google
