I`ve had many happy hours in there, 40--50+ years ago-- when a friendly Management ran it, and thrived because of it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09622467870389120894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8004276568366269138.post-83450317369610678542016-04-16T09:26:09.940+01:002016-04-16T09:26:09.940+01:00Sadly the Stout House is no longer lively and fill...Sadly the Stout House is no longer lively and filled with young and old punters! There seems to be a missed opportunity here, considering its prime location in the Carfax.Well done to Dark Star, though.

In the early 80s I lived in Surrey for a while and one day took a trip out to Horsham to go round a few of the pubs, when K&B was still K&B and some of the finest beer in the country.<br /><br />At the end of the lunchtime session, I ended up in the Stout House, where I was standing at the bar next to the partition between public and lounge - is that still even there? <br /><br />I happen to have fairly small hands for my general build, and also keep my nails neatly trimmed. Some bloke on the other side saw my hand grasping my pint, and touched it in the belief that it belonged to a woman. He got a bit of a shock when he found out that it didn't!Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558747878308766840noreply@blogger.com
