RE: hehe..cow & calf..any parking nearby? C&C has a big car park. Sam Smiths on draught. Bitter and lager (pils). Nice & cheap. You'll still need to take car closer to ground though - or get a taxi/ walk - 2 miles. If you're in the car suggest you take it as far down Fox Hill as you can get, turn it round to face back up the hill - perfect for a quick gettway.
RE: got to be better than the top red lion nt Definitely. Top Red was the place all the kids went. Keeps changing hands. They were going to make it into a curry house which would ve been great but some locals objected.... they'd rather have youths hanging 'round the street corner. :'( Angel is rough too. The only pubs we bother with are The Old Harrow & Cow & Calf. Pubs on bottom road (A61) are just too far to walk. We'll be in the C&C from 12.30 ish hopefully (pint)
