Situated in what is popularly known as Milton village, this large detached pub has a sizeable public bar at the front and a separate lounge to the rear The public is traditionally furnished, sports a bare-boarded floor and includes plenty of standing room for when the pub gets busy. Two dart boards, a pool table, gaming machines and a jukebox can all be found here, as well as a large wall-mounted televisions, on which Sky Sports is shown. Live bands perform most weekends and a meat raffle is drawn on Sundays. The pub's large beer garden proves especially popular in summer, when outdoor events are hosted. The children's play equipment keeps the young ones entertained.

Asset of Community Value

Large 19th century vernacular public house with an interwar single storey extension which is completely oak panelled to picture rail height, has a parquet floor, and a fireplace set in a gigantic inglenook, housing fitted curved settles to matched radiused walls on either side with parapets above mantle shelf height. Fitted bench seating from the rest of the room has been lost. The servery is a quadrant next to what was probably a kitchen (no sign of off sales here), the fittings behind the server have been replaced, the glass shelf over the bar front with turned supports is probably a later alteration but the top moulding seems to match. The toilets are modernised but the doors to the lavatories retain original brass furniture and signage.

On the left the main building has been opened out and is notable only for a large 70’s feature fireplace and 1980 painted panels over the bar canopy featuring anthropomorphic mice. Other murals on the walls have been irreparably Artexed over.
