The majority of pubs have now reopened after the latest lockdown, albeit still with restrictions. Many pubs currently have temporary trading hours; these are shown where known. We also show pubs we know have still not reopened as temporarily closed.

Please note that due to the pandemic currently being allowed to run out of control, many pubs are having to close temporarily due to staff or customers getting "pinged". Please check with the pubs if you plan to travel any distance.

Closed on 2 Jan 2018 - future uncertain. Well furbished lounge bar & restaurant. Disabled toilet.

A large fire broke out at this pub on March 26th 2020.

It appears that apart from the shell of the building, everything has been pretty much destroyed.

It's shown on this old OS map from about 1902 (larger map)

The building on this map appears different to today's, so evidently it was rebuilt at some time.
