The Fairview Inn was situated at 16 Glebelands.
Built in 1959 by Reading brewery H & G Simonds, it was included in Camra's
National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors for its full-height wooden wall
panelling. The pub closed in December 2013 after being sold by Enterprise
Inns. |

Review from tantallon.org.uk: |
Sign: Magdalen Tower, Bridge and the
Botanical Gardens as viewed from the Cherwell south of the bridge. Same pub
sign as The Oxford Blue.
* Courage Best (4.0%) £1.80
* Courage Directors (4.8%) £1.90 (21.viii.1998)
Overlooking the Southfield Golf Course and eventually the town centre, this
is built in a newish corner of the Wood Farm estate and has a sizeable
car park.
The lounge bar is dominated by a projection television screen, which was
showing Central South news at the time. Dark red, plush otherwise, with a
clay model of a man flashing on the windowsill. There's a wee extension with
a pinball table in it.
Beer in good condition, but suffering from being either Courage Best or
Courage Directors. (26.viii.1998) |
