We visited the old courts last night to watch Trevor Roots Buffalo Soldier, a Bob Marley tribute band, has an excellent night, music was good, bar staff very friendly. We went into the Bailiff’s Bar for a drink before the acts started. The bar was very chilled and there was a guitarist playing. Would recommend for a relaxed night when you want to chat with friends.
