Signage around the front entrance includes an old Tetley lantern and the brewery's own plaque declaring it a 'Heritage Inn'. When I went in, they were serving Taylor's Landlord as the regular ale.
The Redoubt, Westgate Common, Wakefield

Described by CAMRA in their regional inventory of heritage pubs as "a good old corridor-centred pub which evolved out of vernacular stone cottages". The pub is at the eastern end of Horbury Road, and survived demolition of adjacent terraced houses when the gyratory system was made around St Michael's church.

Heritage pubs of West Yorkshire

In 2014 the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) produced a book titled "Yorkshire's Real Heritage Pubs" (ISBN 978-1-85249-315-8). These are pubs that might be listed for their exterior architecture, or serve great real ale, but not all: inclusion in the collection is for their unaltered historic interiors representing mostly the Victorian and Edwardian era with features such as brass, carved wood, real fires, mosaics and tiling. This shared description will cover the 47 listed in West Yorkshire as I visit them.
