• all about the same - the health fud place in the "high" street not fussy how fresh faced u r
• lots, all good, most could be better tho. AND WE DO NOT HAVE ANY BIKER PUBS. The ship was where all the bikers used to go, But now they kind of go to all of them, and they are very welcome to.
• The Royal attracts that fresh faced crowd u talk about...The Crown..are all teh people who have been drinking since adam and eve and are now fed up of all the young uns at the royal..The Ship is dead nice now..Gets my seal of approval as does the tudor and the george..Augustus John is nice but lotsa farmers
• The Ship has changed completely. It is now owned by a very nice Austrailian/New Zealand Lady (not quite sure on accent). It does excellent food, has got excellent rooms for B&B, and not a biker in sight. It's gone upmarket a bit. Complete rufurbishment, now means the lounge bar, is now all part of the whole bar.
• The Ship is a lot better..I went back at Xmas and it was really cool...
• the royal accepts young llokin adults.the crown is harder but u get most of the college lot there.the ships nicer now its been done but still not a majotr hot spot.the george does the food and is for the older kids.
• I went to the Royal arms for a new years eve party and not a biker in sight!!!! Maybe it is being mixed up with the Ship before it was done up.
• pubs are ok as pubs, but there are all the same faces every weekend and the same muppets that wind each other up and scrap over a beer or some dirty old slapper that has done fordingbridge male population two times.
• The Tudor Rose, Just out side the town towards the north, probably one of the best pubs in the area. Great beer, Great food and superb Landlord and Landlady!!!
• You need to change the fact that the Royal Arms is not full of bikers anymore, The Ship is just wierd, and the Crown is the place where everyone says its crap because you cant get served there til you're old enough to drink, obviously!! Augutus John, dont bother unless you're Fifty+!!

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
