Although the government has now allowed pubs to reopen, many are still unable to do so safely, while most if not all are only able to accommodate limited numbers of customers. Many of them are still reliant on providing takeaway food and/or drinks. Some offer deliveries, while others are selling from the premises. This page lists details of those we know about.
If you can give any of our pubs some support through these difficult times by buying some takeaway food or drink, please do so. Our pubs need as much support as possible if they're going to still be there for us when the crisis is over.

According to A Survey of Suffolk Parish History, the pub was destroyed by fire in 1912. So the building now on site (which we had thought to be the pub) is evidently newer).
It's shown on this old OS map from about the end of the 19th century as an un-named beerhouse. interactive map
