Website

An interesting old building dating back to 1799 with several nooks and crannies. The pub was taken over on a five-year lease from December 2018 by the family running the Garibaldi pub in St Albans (another Fuller's pub). This is one of the few Fuller's pubs stocking a regular beer from outside the Fuller's range. The outside drinking area has been updated with sheltering .The pub also participates in local darts league.
