Best bit? The chicken on top of the helmet
The Strickland Arms was the venue for the Oxford HHH trail start and On-After yesterday and this odd shaped little pub in an oddly medieval little village was definitely up to the job. A Wadworth house, it featured Henry’s IPA (which I’ve had before and really liked) and St. George and the Dragon which I tried several times on this visit and was equally impressed…it had floral hints without being overtly fragrant and the aftertaste was bitter and astringent.
The garden is small but there’s room for Aunt Sally and the place seems to host Morris Dancing (although we were lucky enough to be there on poker night, instead). The folks that were eating had these massive platters that smelled fantastic and looked great, too.
Here’s the Oxford Hash House Harriers ‘Hash Trash’ related to this trip:
