Keystone Pub

The Keystone Pub is an inn in Berleben. The purveyor of this establishment for the previous ten years was Dent Bonswallow, who inherited it from his father.

Architecture

The pub was built on top of an old building that had fallen into itself and collapsed. It looked haphazard and somewhat unstable with bits of broken stone. It had an eight-foot rope ladder hanging down the front that led into an open archway on the top, and a small crooked tower, about 25 feet high.

Interior

The inside was a warmly lit, though dark, cozy cramped space. It was made from wood and resembled being below deck on ship at sea. A handful of oil lanterns created heavily shaded areas. In the corner on the right side of the pub was a small five by five foot stage in the process of being built. The left side of the pub had a medium-sized, L-shaped bar. Behind it were three oil lamps and some ale kegs. Behind and to the back of the bar in a dark corner was a hatch with a ladder that led to the downstairs area.

Downstairs

Below the inn were subterranean rooms in the ruin of the old establishment, built after the area was cleared of the water and debris that had fallen in.
There were four separate rooms with a small cross-section hallway between them. Two of the rooms were dry, but two of the rooms had about half an inch of water on the floor. The rooms had no windows, one bed and a small oil lamp. The cost of these rooms was a silver piece per person.
