Dog friendly traditional pub just across the ring road from the town centre, this local reopened in 2013 as a real ale pub and serves up to six changing cask ales including ones from micros from the local area and up to three everchanging real ciders. A recently installed log burner adds to the relaxed friendly atmosphere from both staff and customers alike while you enjoy a well kept beer.
