Do you ever visit a pub’s website? Are they for ‘armchair’ pub fans or to attract new drinkers and diners? Here is a tour of the websites of every pub in Cwmbran in alphabetical order. I found it quite boring as the majority of the pubs did not have an official site so for those I’ve just linked to either a listing from the top ten after a google search or the pub’s Facebook page.

The more interesting sites have a comment or two after the link. This was quite a thirsty task…

If any wrong sites are listed please let me know and I will update them with new links. Sorry if I’ve missed any off the list. Let me know and again I will update the page.

The Ashbridge I smiled at the newspaper review on this page…from the Cornish Guardian. Did they send a journalist to Cwmbran?
