Charming whitewashed traditional street-corner local. The building dates back nearly 300 years. The pub has the atmosphere of a traditional country local with a compact central bar serving several discrete areas including two small cosy rooms with real warming fires for the winter. Tastefully redecorated in 2021 while retaining all its traditional character. Small garden to the side of the pub. Live music usually on Sunday and a folk/acoustic jam session every Monday.

Historic Interest

Claimed to be built originally in 1724, formerly a farmhouse where ale was brewed and sold from 1725, it became a pub in the 1820s, possibly known as the Blue Anchor but by 1825 known as the Coach & Horses. The pub is listed in Bagshaw's Directory of 1850. The old photos were of the pub in the early 1900s and at a later date. A West Cheshire Brewery pub, selling Whitbread beers in the 1980s.

General information about historic pub interiors

Rendered building with a flat roof extension (i.e. the inside gents' toilets). It has a compact interior still with four small rooms / areas and looks like it was last refitted in the 1950s. Has a Victorian tiled floor in the lobby and Victorian coloured glass in the inner door. The front right small room has two old high backed settles, the stone fireplace appears old and has a log fire, and a bench at the rear also looks old. A front bench looks more from the 1950s. The small front left room has a doorway, another stone fireplace that looks old with a log fire and the fixed seating is post-war. There is a floor-to-ceiling ‘modesty screen’ near a door which has a ‘Ladies’ 1930s etched panel.

A double width doorway leads to the small servery at the rear which has a recently sanded down lapped wood counter which is possibly inter-war but more likely post-war and the bar back fitting has a series of drawers. The flagstone floor here is a mixture of old and new. To the left of the servery i.e. rear left is a tiny area with a 1950s brick fireplace. To the right of the servery i.e. rear right is a tiny area with a 1950s brick fireplace covered by a table and the fixed seating either side looks 1950/1960s. A 1930s door leads to a passage with ply panels leads to the gents with ‘Gents’ in 1930s etched panel in the door and has three large urinals possibly from the 1950s? All doors look to be from the 1930s.
