Final explore of the year, visited with a non-member.

This pub has been derelict for quite a while now. History is a bit scarce, but according to local people, it was originally called the Duke of Kent, then the Swiss Cottage, before finally becoming Braces. I was quite surprised, as I imagined this site to be quite uninspiring and completely trashed. It has been vandalized far less than I expected - some of the pint glasses are still stacked neatly on the shelves! I also found the interior design quite unique, certain parts, such as the staircase, resemble something you might find in a large manor house, rather than a pub.
