A large and airy pub, prominently placed at the top end of the town centre. Formerly the library in the heyday of the Water Cure, most recently Barclays Banks, this conversion has glass and "mahogany" in abundance much like other Black Country Ales pubs, but here the high ceilings allow for chandeliers. Large screen shows the beer menu and another for train times at Great Malvern station.

A selection of cobs and snacks served daily.

Despite its location on the hill, level access for wheelchairs is possible through a side door to the bar and adapted toilet.
