Two hanging tile stone 18th century cottages converted into a inn around 1890 there are a lot of fittings that could date from inter-war times in this four roomed pub. The right hand door leads to a small room with old dado panelling, old similar panelling on the bar counter front with an old top and it is more like a hatch than a counter and a short old baffle by the doorway to the left. Teo low partitions create a short passage to the toilets at the rear where the brick arch above the doorway looks very 1930s; two good exterior etched windows.

Doorway to the left into a tiny room in the middle containing the servery where both the public area and the servery have a parquet floor. What could be an inter-war counter looks like its position has changed as it doesn't match the parquet floor. The old stillage now has three casks dispensing a craft keg and lager products; old, possibly inter-war dado panelling.

A doorway leads to the small lounge on the left in what looks like the oldest part of the pub with its low ceiling, inglenook fireplace of old (possibly inter-war) bricks and cupboards within. The left hand wall has half timbering and there is old dado panelling. There is a dining room on the far left and the pub operates as more of a restaurant that sells beer and closes on Sundays at 4pm.
