Lively and popular pub with two separate drinking areas served by a single bar. Tiled or wooden floors with a large real fire in the main room. Live music monthly and terrestrial sport TV in bar area. Occasional quiz nights. Regular food menu plus daily specials (see chalk board) and themed food nights. Phone ahead for glutten free or vegetarian options.
Some of the building dates from the 16th century, with much subsequent work.
Reported to have closed April 2019; locals are under the impression that the owner wants to turn it into a house. A "for sale" board was erected early in May; the building is being marketed as a pub…
