This former coaching inn, first mentioned in local records in 1776 and one of only 28 pubs initially owned by Young & Bainbridge in 1831, is now a single-bar pub retaining dark wood panelling and leaded stained-glass windows. If the pub looks small, the award-winning garden certainly does not, entered under a grapevine arch and having a selection of seating areas, a well-equipped children’s play area and even room for playing petanque. The function room at the back was once a skittle alley.
