Re-opened in February 2020 following extensive refurbishment, with both a restaurant and drinks offer. Website lists real ale offering as Doom Bar with several craft beers on keg. More details after a pub survey has been completed.

This former Whitbread house is the nearest to Paddock Wood railway station. Its unusual name is attributed to a local war hero, whose history you can read inside the pub.
