Honington Fox
Real Ale is sold here.
Recently refurbished. A 1930s pub that's popular with personnel from nearby RAF base. Four rotating beers, sofas, today's papers and pool table.
It seems that the present pub isn't the original building, as according to A Survey of Suffolk Parish History, it was referred to in a murder trial in 1794.
