Corn Mill

Quite a lot of the old mill workings, including the huge waterwheel (often turning), have been preserved at this impeccably restored watermill in Llangollen town centre: expect gleaming timber and tensioned steel rails, pale pine flooring on stout beams and lots of bare stone walls. There are good-sized dining tables, big rugs, thoughtfully chosen pictures (many with a water theme) and several pot plants. There are two serving bars. One, away from the water, has a much more local feel with regulars sitting on bar stools, pews on dark slate flagstones and daily papers. There are also seats on a raised deck in front of the pub overlooking the rushing mill race and rapids below; you can also watch steam trains arriving and leaving the station on the opposite riverbank. To drink: Phoenix Brunning & Price Original and Facers DHB on handpump with guests such as Facers North Star Porter, Hawkshead Windermere Pale and Moorhouses Pendle Witches Brew, plus 15 wines by the glass, a good range of malt whiskies and farm cider.
