The Building

What's Unique Or Special About The Tavern Is Housed In?

What is special about the tavern is its architecture. The building is made up of external timber beams with a diagonal brick structure making the walls. The pattern of these bricks when viewed from the other side of the street can look like tiger stripes. These stripes are a result of the firing profess of making the bricks and were an unintentional part of the manufacturing of the bricks.
In the tavern behind the bar where there would normally be a whole range of whiskeys and other drinks is a carved stained pine statue of a tiger sleeping with its tail hanging over the edge of the shelf. This was commissioned by the owner of the tavern.

To make a child or children behave in the tavern, by the parents. The caregivers will use the story that the tiger on the shelf will be asleep until the child misbehaves while the tiger may not come alive while at the tavern the tiger will awake at night and “hunt” the misbehaving child. This in later life makes the person laugh and allow the idea, propagates, like the idea of Santa.
