Brilliantly kept ale, classic pub food, a cracking quiz and a jolly landlord!

Grade 2 listed with wooden beams, low ceilings and a central island bar, there has been a pub on this site since 1750. All that is missing from the good old days is the outside toilets, which have been converted into our gorgeous conservatory, look hard enough and you can still see some of the old tiles.
