As the Nag's Head pre June 2023, this pleasantly furnished roadside pub was the venue from where some of the first CAMRA members were signed up in May 1971. A plaque commemorating this is displayed near the entrance. The pub serves three cask ales to a lounge and pre-laid dining areas. It is popular with drinkers and diners alike. There's off-road parking to the side with a fenced-off patio area offering plenty of outside seating.

Historic Interest

A plaque commemorates the pub being the first place in the country where CAMRA members were signed up.

Information for this venue is provided by the Dee Valley Branch of CAMRA
