This traditional pub was situated on attractive village green. Easy to miss from A1101 as it was neatly tucked away behind the church (but did have signs on the main road). Built late 18th or early 19th century.
Late in 2022, after many years standing empty, planning permission to convert the pub to residential use was granted.

Owner/operator: Greene King
Tucked away behind the church, just of the A1101, this pub is easy to miss - but don't! Consistently good beer, (cask breather is only occasionally used on seasonal ales) is complemented by quality food from one of the landlords, who is a trained chef.
