The Nutshell
At only 15ft by 7ft, The Nutshell is officially the smallest pub in Britain, as certified by the Guinness Book of Records.
That alone makes this mini-pub worth the visit, but the selection of local ales and the cosy vibe of the bar decorated with memorabilia (including a Mummified cat!) makes it such a great place to literally drink side by side with a small bunch of strangers who may just tell you an incredible tale.
