Baby It’s Hot Inside
12 May 2022
Even if it’s cold and gloomy outside – no one can feel a chill inside this pub. A wonderfully ornate and exuberant interior for a pub in Devon. Something that happens a lot in Britain, is that the inside of a space can really surprise and delight you, with no forewarning offered by the exterior.
It goes beyond just pubs. A small little window leads to a multilevel shopper’s paradise. A fast food joint turns out to have second, even third floors. A grey old dame of a building is a wonderland inside with hidden delights and a restaurant you never knew about. What you see is not always what you get.

Peter van der Walt is a fiction author, although you may find some non-fiction and the odd essay out there. Fans can find his newsletter, posts, updates and developments at petervanderwalt.com. Currently, he is hard at work on his next story. When not writing, he has far too many interests to reasonably keep up with. He lives with his partner in Devon, England.
