The pub's name comes from a local legend of a 'cunning man' - a good wizard who would help to protect people from dark spirits and witches. The original building was destroyed following repeated flooding, however the newly re-built pub-restaurant has been impressively restored, several years ago, to its original style - complete with thatched roof. The attractive gardens are extensive. There is an exit directly onto the Kennet and Avon Canal towpath from the car park where one can stroll and see the narrow boats passing by. Alcohol is served from 10:00 on Saturday and Sunday. Food served until one hour before closing. Buses 2 and 2A stop right outside the pub.

Information for this venue is provided by the Reading & Mid-Berks Branch of CAMRA
