This Pub is Closed Long Term

Substantial open-plan & modern styled free house set well back from road with tiled floors & decorated with photos & artefacts mainly related to the former WW2 airbase (Rougham) that was located nearby. Food is available all week (including a popular roast on Sundays) & two pleasant conservatories overlook the garden & provide excellent views of the surrounding area. The original building was much extended about 20 years ago. Although still enjoying a pleasant setting, in recent years the pub has enjoyed somewhat less of a rural location as new housing of the suburbs of Bury St Edmunds has encroached eastwards. Photographs of this pub and more historical information about it can be found at suffolk.camra.org.uk/pub/334

Historic Interest

Although often described as being in Great Barton, & sometimes in Bury, the pub is actually within the parish of Rougham. Built as a farmhouse just before WW2 & then requisitioned & used as part of airfield facilities from 1943-45 (as technical stores). Again used as a private house after war until being converted into a pub in 1988. (information supplied by pub)
