Previously run as a traditional pub, then changed to a high-end restaurant-only mode, has now reverted to an open pub again, serving simple pub grub. Marston's portfolio, but may change once pub is sold off by them.
This 16th century pub is included for its distinct early 1960s refit and that it has barely changed since. A passage leads from the front door to the rear and on the right is the public bar in two parts. There is a good colourful quarry tiled floor small area in front of the bar. Bar counter dates from the 1960s and is of stone with casks embedded into it and a copper top, the fixed seating is from the 1960s, and there is a stone fireplace. Bar back shelves are set in stone on the back wall. Through a gap is a seating area on the right with 1960s fixed seating on three sides. On the left is the dining room which was revamped in 2006 when they exposed the fine stone fireplace with a mantelshelf almost up to the ceiling height which had been covered by plasterboard since the 1960s. Just past the door to the bar is a door to the servery with a window/hatch i.e. the off sales in the past. Outside gents with covered passage nowadays. In Dec 2008 a farm shop opened in former derelict outbuildings at the rear.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 1 regular beer.
