Hawkins Forge, a historic pub in Battersea, has reopened following a two-and-a-half-week refurbishment, unveiling a fresh new look while keeping its traditional charm.

The revamp includes both interior and exterior updates, with the addition of a new garden seating area and an Arrowsmiths Digital Darts game inside.

The pub now boasts upgraded TVs for showing live sports and will continue to host free live music every Friday and Saturday, with an updated music line-up to enhance its already lively atmosphere.
