    It's that time of year when we hold our friendly annual branch Quoits competition.

    As usual you don't have to have played before, or even know the rules, all will be explained. This is always a fun event so come down, enjoy a few pints and throw a few Quoits!

    If you don't want to join in, please feel free to come along and lend support.

  • Tap Rooms Bus Trip Friday 25 July 2025 18:00 Darlington Market Square

    It's been a while since our last well received bus trip to The Surtees Arms and Hopper House Farm in November so it's about time we had another one.
