There was also a club room, where the Hallaton Friendly Society held their meetings, plus a kitchen, scullery and four upstairs bedrooms. The tap room was a simple affair with two painted seats and a table lit by lamps. The bar, with its three-pull beer engine, had seven Windsor chairs, an armchair and a couch. There was a hearth rug on the floor, a lamp on the chimney breast, a hanging lamp and shade, and another standing lamp. There were also three iron spittoons. The cellar contained barrels of XXX ale, a mild ale. For pale ale drinkers there were All Saints light ale and their India Pale Ale. There were bottles of Guinness, Bass ale and Bass stout."
