Recently purchased by Black Country Ales in 2020 and refurbished during the last lockdown. The bar now has a central servery for all areas upstairs. Downstairs is a cosy little room for events and functions. The pub is reputedly haunted and is known nationwide for this. Two ciders are on handpulll but are likely not to be real. The car park has been removed to provide an enclosed garden.
