This pub is a familiar and distinctive landmark on the main A21 to Hastings, having being built in the style of a Kentish oasthouse. Previously a Beefeater, it is now a Vintage Inns restaurant pub. Spacious and comfortable.
Historic Interest
The original public house was at the north end of the former village green with its pond, when the original village was called Greenstreet Green. Later extended in the late 19th C, this was owned by Whitbread. The new purpose built building with mock oasthouse was constructed after the opening of the Farnborough bypass in 1927, the original building still partly surviving today as the Bombay restaurant - the service road at the back was once a village street lined with cottages. (From 1965 to 1978, the pub was the foundation and focal point for the Orpington Folk Club.)
