  • Historic Interior

This picturesque pub lies close to Louth's historic St James' Church, which boasts the highest single spire in the country and is visible from miles around. The pub offers a good selection of real ales and a tasty homemade food menu. The pub has a lovely beer garden and is a popular meeting place for walkers and ramblers.

It has the tallest spire of any medieval parish church in England, and is second only to the 19th-century Roman Catholic Church of St Walburge in Preston, Lancashire.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: II

A brick-built pub whose fittings date from several different eras, though there are strong signs of a comprehensive inter-war refurbishment. A flagstone passage runs from the front door to the rear patio. A snug at one end has a separate entrance and inter-war bench seating. The good-quality low panelled counter (possibly Edwardian) forms part of a square servery, the rest of which features much later fittings. Behind the servery, a small room with an oldish counter is now opened up to a rear lounge housing an inter-war brick fireplace. A further lounge lies across the central corridor - it has chunky bench seating and a curved servery, formerly in the opposite corner of the room.

General information about historic pub interiors

Brick built pub fronting the street, the fittings do not date from any one era but there are strong signs of an inter-war refurbishment. A flagstone passage runs from the front door to the rear patio. A snug at one end has separate side entrance and inter-war (?) bench seating throughout. Good-quality low panelled counter (possibly Edwardian or older) forms part of a square servery, the rest of which contains much later fittings. Behind the servery is a small area with a bar counter at least 40 years old. The room is now opened up to a rear lounge which houses an interwar style brick fireplace. Across the central corridor there is a further lounge with rather chunky bench seating throughout and a curved servery, which was moved from the opposite corner of the room some years ago. Outside lavatories.
