Built in 1886 for the Brickwoods Brewery, The Fawcett Inn occupies a prominent position on a busy street corner, at the end of Fawcett Road in Southsea. With its half-timbered 'brewers Tudor' style and witch's hat tower, it has an imposing presence. The pub is surrounded by residential properties and is located opposite various retail units. Local demographics are very strong and the pub has a well established local following. Southsea centre is half a mile away and the sea front is 10 minute walk from the pub. The Fawcett is also close to Fratton Railway station and Fratton Park which is the home of Portsmouth Football Club.
Pub Layout
The pub hosts one large, curved trade space, having been knocked through in previous years. The pub floor is boarded throughout and furnishings are mostly traditional, including a small number of armchairs on a raised area in the corner of the pub, which is transformed into a stage when live music is hosted. The pub is adorned with framed images of past Portsmouth and football memorabilia. A large, attractive patio courtyard is located at the rear of the pub, complete with barbecue for use in the summer months. The catering kitchen is located to the rear of the bar servery.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, lounge, office, kitchen and bathroom.
