This is a Two Star pub on the Campaign for Real Ale’s (CAMRA) National Inventory as a pub of Outstanding National Historic Interest, and the description is as follows: "A remarkably intact early post-war pub that still retains its original two room layout.

The original Sultan was destroyed during WWII, the present replacement being built in the 1950s. All the indications are that it was always just two rooms – the public bar on the left and the saloon bar on the right.

The public bar on the left retains its original 1950s counter with the front now painted pink, and the original bar back of shelves on ply panelling with some mirrored panels. Around the small room is a dado of 1950s ribbed hardboard also painted pink and there are two small 1950s brick fireplaces.

The saloon bar on the right also retains the original distinctive 1950s style counter with vertical wood panels on the front, the original bar-back of shelves on ply panelling with some mirrored panels where two small fridges have replaced some, but not all, of the lower shelves. Within the back fittings there is a disused dumb waiter that would have been used for moving bottled beers to and from the cellar. Above the servery is a canopy of pegboard tiles with a 1950s ribbed hardboard edging now almost completely obscured by pump clips. There are also three small 1950s brick fireplaces and on the walls are tall ply panels reaching to picture-frame height."
