Built in 1810 and was possibly a farm house originally, this pub has served canal users and its community for the best part of 200 years. The interior layout was opened out a few years ago and has low beams and a pool table tucked into one corner. Entry takes you into the original pub where the bar counter is on the left. Here could be found the solitary but now disused handpump dispensing the weekly guest ale. The interesting point about the guest ale was that landlord "Gussy" asks his suppliers to surprise him when ordering his drinks and they invariably obliged with a generally unusual ale. Booking for Sunday lunch is preferable while during the week simple bar snacks are available on request. Open Mic (Tue), occasional live music (Wed, Thu), Karaoke (Fri & Sat), quiz night (Sun). Across the road is Cwmbran Sports Stadium and Celtic Park for sports fans. Access for wheelchair users may be a bit tight through some doors but the width to the toilets is fine while there is a ramp at the rear leading to the garden and smoking shelter.

Historic Interest

Given its close proximity and historic connections to the Monmouthshire & Brecon canal the pub may get listed status.
