I've visited 25,000 pubs... and sunk 60,000 pints. From a grand Victorian library to a ramshackle cider farm, these are the top 50 you simply must visit - and I bet you haven't heard of most of them

I've spent the last 42 years visiting pubs. Not just the odd one or two, either. I've just clocked up my 25,000th, which I reckon makes me something of an expert on the great British boozer.
