The pub consists of a central Public Bar with a Snug like annex to one side and a Lounge Bar/Restaurant to the other side. Floors of oak boards in the Snug and quarry tiles in the Public Bar plus exposed ceiling timbers and a fireplace set back in what appears to have once been an inglenook fireplace all enhance the olden rural ambience. The pub has a small concreted patio area with picnic tables and a large lawned garden also with picnic tables plus childrens play equipment. Patrons can gain access from the garden to a surfaced track which circumnavigates Thornton Reservoir enabling one to walk all the way around the man-made lake.

Historic Interest

This pub has been in existence for many years and, according to local lore, is reputed to have been 'kept' by members of the Dilks family since the early 1600s. The last Dilks landlord was Arthur Dilks, who was born at the pub and retired soon after his 65th birthday in 1982. The pub was so called because besides been licensed victuallers the Dilks family traded as builders.
