Friendly pub that attracts a good mix of regulars and visitors to the region. It was built in the 1850s as lodgings for railway workers constructing the viaduct under which it sits, becoming a public house a few years later. The pub has been refurbished with a comfortable bar and lower dining area. It serves good quality home-cooked food at reasonable prices, and hosts quizzes on Tuesday night for which prior booking is essential by phone or Facebook.
