A few more recent interior photos. During the renovation in the 2000s
the traditional Victorian features including a long bar, stained glass windows and cornices were returned to their former glory.

This revamp earned it the title of best-designed pub in the country at the Publican Awards in 2008

And an advert from when it was known as The Albion Hotel. Before that time it was named the Adelphi Wine Vaults, although when it became the Albion it had been redeveloped.
