Oxted Inn

This small purpose-built Wetherspoon's pub was opened on 3 July 1997 on the site of a former builders' merchant. It is less than one minute's walk from Oxted station. Oxted is on the Greenwich meridian and the pub is decorated with over 20 working clocks, showing the time in London, and other places such as Cairo, Nairobi, Tehran, Calcutta, Sydney, and Anchorage. Also, the pub, which is the only one in the new part of town, is decorated with many local photos from the 1905-1910 era, including the George Inn (Crowleys Ale), Old Bell (the sign being in the shape of a large bell), Crown and local shops and roads. Other displays give historical information about the area including one about industrial unrest caused by the importation of labour from Belgium to speed up construction of Oxted tunnel. There are televisions around but the sound is usually turned off. Food is served all day from 8 in the morning until 11 at night, although alcohol is not available until 9am. There is an outside veranda for smokers.
