Willow Tree Inn

Situated in a residential area, this two-room free-house is very much part of the local community. Refurbished in January 2016, it is served by a central bar. The tap room to the right is decorated with old sporting photographs and features a juke box and a free pool table. The tastefully redecorated lounge is warmed by a multi-fuel stove and some old photos of the pub. Some glazing from the long-gone Heys brewery remains in the porch itself and there is a small round Heys window to the right in the main wall. Children are welcome until 7 p.m. A quiz is held on Tuesday nights and there is a book club Thursdays. Wednesday is Cask Ale Club - cask ales are sold at a cheaper price (pints only). Bridgehouse beers feature strongly. Limited bus service (K13, K17) to this end of the village, otherwise the nearest bus stop is on the main road beyond the Marquis of Granby (downhill all the way: use the signposted footpath down the steps almost directly opposite the pub door). Local CAMRA 'Pub of the Season' Summer 2016.
