Former 'Red Lion', a pub with striking Victorian frontage featuring beautiful leaded light windows that include the former name of the pub, at the centre of village. Beer range changes frequently. Popular with locals and visitors alike along with casual walkers. Quality meals at reasonable prices (child size/medium/large portion choice). Closing times may vary, dependent upon footfall. Recently had new signage depicting both the 'giant' and previous 'red lion'.
