Inside, the results are impressive. Mansfield's renovations tend to have a high quality feel to them, and this is no exception.

On the right as you enter the front door is a comfortable lounge area; on the left a pool and games room.

Exterior Photo

Right, are you listening carefully? Exterior before conversionOnce upon a time there was a pub called the Black Prince. It looked very much like the photo on the right.

It's owners, Mansfield Brewery, came along and spent a great deal of money modernising it, as you can see in the second picture on the right.

Exterior during renovationFinally, what had been the Black Prince re-emerged as the Friar Tuck. This addition to the Cottingham scene opened its doors to the world on 22 September 1997. The end result may have had an odd name for a pub, but was a significant improvement on what had been there before. It can be seen in the third picture on the right.Exterior of Friar Tuck

Maybe we weren't the only people to think that "Friar Tuck" was a naff name. Six months after it emerged it disappeared again, hopefully for ever: and the Black Prince again graced the Cottingham scene.
