An attractive 400 year old white-washed stone built, thatched roofed village pub that is hidden away down a small lane just off the main road into the village. The character continues inside with the two main areas having beamed ceilings, stone floors, open fires and a reputed friendly ghost. A beer garden is at the rear.
and a piano in the reception.
A 16th-century village pub with thatch covering a corrugated iron roof. It expanded into an adjoining cottage in the late 1950s and is little changed since then. The lounge bar, a long room on two levels, has late 1950s bar fittings including a coopered-effect counter front with brass straps for 'hoops'; on the right is a similar counter but with a half-timbered effect bar front; and the bar-back fitting is from the late 1950s with some modern additions. The front door leads into a quarry-tiled passage created by a settle set into a partition wall and slightly opened up to the left is a tiny partially panelled snug with good built-in seating including the settle with a blacksmith's iron stay supporting it to a beam. The brick fireplace is modern. Service is from another small late 1950s coopered bar counter. The room on the far left was private quarters and became a pub room in the 1980s. At the rear is a dining room, originally part of the living quarters, which was brought into pub use in the 1980s firstly as a snooker room. The outside toilets are now joined up with the pub and have been modernised.
