Close to the town centre, the pub has been a focus point for both draft ale and live music, winning numerous CAMRA accolades over the years.

After 12 great years landlords Sam and Marie-Clare Clayton could not agree on the terms of a new lease with owners Stonegate and were forced to close.

The pub reopens at 4pm on Friday Feb 13th 2026, with the Freehold now owned by North South Leisure
