This historic coaching inn, relaunched in July 2025 under new management, draws its name from the "cock horse," a term for horses ridden to the foot of steep hills and then hitched to carriages to aid in climbing. The inn served a route through local hills, ending in Brockton, Shropshire, where another pub shares its name. It features a spacious, enclosed beer garden at the back and offers classic pub games like pool, darts, and dominoes. Sandwiches and rolls are available.

Information for this venue is provided by the Montgomeryshire Branch of CAMRA
