Dating from the early seventeenth century this is a cosy, friendly and attractive pub at the bottom of the hill about half a mile from the town centre. Close to the Ludlow Brewery the entrance is through an arch which leads to the scenic outdoor drinking area adjacent to the River Corve. The pub offers free biscuits to dogs and free wi-fi. Low beams, hanging hops, bare board flooring and a large open fire give the bar a very traditional feel and a cosiness in winter. Once owned by the Wrekin Brewery of Wellington.

Was turned into a B&B and then closed. The Unicorn was reopened by Black Country Ales in May 2025 who have tastefully done refurbishment inside & out while still retaining original features though out making a welcoming place .Also they have brought back into use two back rooms as extra drinking areas/meeting rooms , the beer garden patio area is now a pleasant place to while away a summers evening. Bar snacks only - Cobs /Pork pies/Scotch eggs etc.

There are ten handpumps, eight for beer and two for varying ciders and perries, but note that these may not both be "real" as defined by CAMRA.
