Dating from 1740s the pub was acquired by Adnams in 1994 and respectfully renovated by them. In 2024 it was purchased by Wells & Co. Originally two buildings, they have been combined to give a number of separate drinking areas over two floors, including a downstairs snug. To the rear is a suntrap garden next to the mound of the long-gone castle. The pub offers a selection cask ales including two from Adnams. Excellent food served every session, including a wide selection of specials and a Sunday Roast & Carvery.
