Opened as a Wetherspoons Lodge in February 2017 after an excellent conversion.

The inside is now almost unrecognisable from the old layout but has been sympathetically done. The main room has a full-length bar with plenty of seating and a view of the kitchen area through an open frontage.

The rest of the pub has a variety of interesting seating areas. Excellent pictures and paintings adorn the walls and the old-favourite tiling mural of King Edgar remains a delight to see.

A small courtyard to the side includes ramped access.

Alcohol is served from 9am.
