The pub is shown on this old OS map from about the end of the 19th century. interactive map
This remote free house had much character and the conservatory gave a fine view of the garden. Good Food was served.
The pub has not traded since 2013 and for some years traded as a trinket shop.
There was a local campaign to buy the pub for the community and it was made an Asset of Community Value, much to the annoyance of the then owners who wanted to sell it as a house.
It has since been converted to residential use.
Owner/operator: free
Remote rural freehouse with character. Recent work has included the addition of a conservatory and well kept gardens. Worth finding.
