Poole. Established in 1635 and located harbourside, the Poole Arms is the oldest pub on the Quay. Its distinctive green glazed tiles facade bearing Poole's coat of arms is a feature from the early 1900s and is a trademark of the former Marston's Dolphin Brewery of Poole. It also reflects the town's famous 19th century ceramics industry ("Poole Pottery"). The interior has been renovated but still features a 17th century fireplace with a chamfered jam and a four center arched lintel. The walls are filled with pictures depicting Poole in bygone times. I tasted two new beers to me - Best Bitter from Rude Giant Brew Co. (Wiltshire, Wylye Valley) and Jurassic Pale Ale (Dorset Brewing Company, Dorchester), while I sat on a picnic table out front and people watched on the Quay.
