Bus Pass Bandit: Part Eighty - GAYDON & BARFORD

Just when you think the Bus Pass Bandit must have covered every inch of Warwickshire within a certain radius of Warwick, Leamington Spa and Stratford, he uncovers more unseen corners to investigate...

The Bandit ventures forth to explore some new areas of Warwickshire, starting at The Malt Shovel Inn at Gaydon.

The first pub with a resident parrot! The beer is "Old Golden Hen" (as opposed to Pretty Polly).

Gaydon Village Hall has a very distinctive appearance.

The Church of St Giles at Gaydon.

Then onwards to Loxley, near Wellesbourne, for a stop at The Fox.

A cunning taste of Cheltenham Gold from Goffs Brewery.

The next stop is at Barford for The Granville Arms.

And a Wye Valley HPA.

Time for a final bonus stop at The Racehorse on the Stratford Road in Warwick.

The theme reflects the Warwick Racecourse nearby.

A Rosie's Pig cloudy cider to complete the day.
