May close Mondays and Tuesdays and open from noon other days in winter, please check website.

Historic Interest

Grade II listed. Early 19th century according to Historic England though there there are 1783 records referring to 'The House at the sign of the Gun'. It's also said to be named after Colonel Hawker's punt gun though the pub name pre-dates this so it is more likely it was named after a signpost for Hurst Castle that had the gun image on it. Historic England list entry 1221405.
