This Pub is Permanently Closed
A warm, quiet, low-beamed two bar Victorian pub, the William IV was originally built as two cottages in the 1850s. The pub is entered via stone steps from a narrow country lane, although a ramp provides easier access at the side of the pub for the less mobile. Seating is available in both of the small bars at the front. The bar to the left of the pub is larger and L-shaped; the other bar is tiny. A separate room is used as a restaurant. Food is served daily 12-2 and 6:30-9 (Sunday 12-5). Outside is a pleasant old-fashioned garden. The pub was bought by Young's in June 2006 and the guest beer will be from their list. Darts is played in one bar, and archery in the garden!
Unfortunately this unspoilt pub was converted to houses.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
Country inn built as two cottages in 1850s and still with three little altered small bars despite the attempts of Youngs Property Company to over-modernise it. The tiny front bar retains its c1960s counter and some old dado panelling. Sadly Youngs ripped out the old bar back fitting when they purchased the pub in 2006 but some old wood remains in the servery area. Another small bar on the left has another c1960s counter and once again has bench seating following Youngs ripping out the original and the new tenant purchasing a replacement in 2008, and a brick fireplace. Another rear bar with an old counter and red tile fireplace is used as a dining room. Even the toilets are outside but now under cover.
