Isolated Grade II listed ancient whitewashed drovers' inn set in a quiet backwater of the highly picturesque Dee valley. Frequented by passing ramblers, it primarily consists of two plainly furnished but characterful rooms warmed by log burners. The small bar usually serves up to two locally sourced cask ales.
Not too many pubs left like this these days.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: II
Deep in the countryside, this small, three-roomed drovers inn has overlooked the Dee valley for over 200 years. The small public bar on the right has old half-height panelled walls; the bar counter was not installed until the 1960s, prior to which beer was fetched from the cellar. On the left an old door leads to the lounge which is likely to once have been a kitchen with its splendid range fireplace and coal fire; it also has bench seating and a piano. Through a very low doorway is a small area near a stable door for service with some old shelves beyond. In this area is another small room, with bench seating, which clearly had an inglenook fireplace at the rear in the past. Outside gents’ and ladies’. There is a games room in buildings at the rear.
