This has been an ale house as far back as 1846 when it was called Godlets Hall. A friendly traditional pub hidden deep in the countryside with a large rear garden and gorgeous views.

This pub was under threat of closure in 2024 and is now owned by Pilkington Estates with a manager in place. There are plans to reintroduce food.

Directions
Although Ley Green is a small hamlet the pub can be difficult to find. There are brown 'Pub' signs at each end of Plough Lane. The T jct to look for has a phone box and wooden bus stop, turn here and it's 200mtrs. It is best to take a map and if all else fails ask a friendly local.
