Visited 12th May 2012.
We walked from 'The Bole Bridge' in to the town where there was a fair sized market in full swing. We meandered past the various stalls until arriving at 'The Silk Kite'. A complete contrast to the previous pub in looks, it felt a lot smaller and was a lot darker inside. It was very busy and initially we thought we were going to have to sit on some high stools that surrounded the dance floor but then Mrs S. with her eagle vision spotted an empty table. We were a blur as we made our way across the pub and were soon sat down on seats where our feet could reach the floor. I went to the bar and ordered a Buffalo Trace and Pepsi for myself and a Malibu and Pepsi for Mrs S. We did a little people watching while we sat and drank but ended up not staying long as Mrs S. was keen to get back out to the market, she was on the hunt for a keyring. As it turned out she was unable to find one and I was the only one of us to actually buy anything, would you believe it? We headed back to the car with me wondering how I could persuade Mrs S. to carry the very large G-clamp that I had bought. We were still discussing it and I was still carrying it when we arrived back at the car. According to Google the next pub on our list was six and a half miles away, shouldn't take to long to get there then.
