This 15th century building is divided into a number of rooms and areas, one of these was the former brewhouse, another has a stove set in a large old fireplace with an adjacent entrance into a priest-hole. Two beer festivals are hosted every year. Live music generally on middle two Fridays of the month, folk on Sunday afternoons and bluegrass once a month. Pork pies and cheese platters are generally available and much recommended. Former local Pub of the Year on two occasions and also a former winner of Cider Pub of the Year.
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: II
A 16th-century building, entered down a long, flagged, panelled corridor. A small room on the left has inter-war panelling and fireplace plus a hatch to the bar. To the right is a delightful suite of three small rooms. First is a snug with recent panelling and a curious copper-topped counter. The gem of a second room is entered through a narrow door and has ancient panelling, old leaded windows, a splendid black-brick open fire and a patterned tiled floor. The third room has been opened out on both sides though the skeleton of one wall survives. It has a very large and fine fireplace. The area further back is a former yard now covered with a glass roof. A former outbuilding, containing the remains of an old brewery, has been incorporated into the pub.
