This long, narrow pub, built over 200 years ago as a coaching inn, stands at the edge of a heath. The beamed, farmhouse-style interior is divided into several separate seating areas. At the rear is a long, narrow, sheltered garden with a children's play area. Food is served all day; occasional themed weeks such as pies, game & lamb. Sunday night is quiz night, and the pub runs a golfing society.

Historic Interest

1¼ miles south is Sway Tower, 218 feet (66.5m) of unreinforced concrete built around 1879 by a retired Indian judge.
