In 1937 the pub is listed in Kelly's Directory as one of 220 pubs that was retailing beer that they were brewing.
After a long history, this pub was converted into a Thai restaurant which actually did sell Real Ale. In May 2014 it was taken over and closed by Hawthorn Leisure, who applied for planning permission to convert it into a house. When visited in June 2015, the building was on the market and clearly abandoned.
A local campaign was launched late in 2015 to try to get the pub reopened.
In August 2016 it was announced that a local businessman has bought the pub and intended to reopen it. The pub reopened at the end of November 2016.
