Built in 1865, this charming red-brick pub nestles in a pretty valley and is well worth the short detour from the A2. The back bar is a good place for a chat or a game of darts, while the front bar is more used for imaginative food. 10% discount off food on Monday lunchtimes for hospitality workers (bring proof). There is a heated and covered area for smokers and a pretty garden. A ramp is available for wheelchair users. Many events, listed on Facebook.

Three small rooms. main bar knocked through (in 1960's ?) into former private accommodation and counter installed. Snob screens lost. More recently the two rooms at the front have been knocked into one and a new bar counter added. The only genuinely old items are the dado panelling in the left hand bar at the front and two pieces of bench seating attached.
