Crown & Trumpet, Broadway, Worcestershire

Posted on 12:22 by Unknown
The Crown & Trumpet could be considered a minor classic for pub games. Though not all on show, Darts, Evesham Quoits, Shove Ha'penny, and Devil Amongst The Taylors are some of the traditional pub pastimes which can be enjoyed here. I'll be returning to the Crown & Trumpet at a later date, hopefully returning with a few images of the Dobbers Board (aka Evesham Quoits) to share on this Blog. Meanwhile, here's a taster of what's on offer, the devilishly difficult Ring the Bull, tucked away next to the Darts Board, and well worth trying, several dozen times if neccesary!
