Fully modernised Grade 2 listed pub with bed & breakfast rooms and conference facilities. Through bar/lounge with adjoining snug/darts room and contemporary artwork. Often used for meetings by the Shrewsbury & Mid-Shropshire Ramblers. There is no car-park but on-street parking available without payment in adjacent residential area.

The adjoining malt-house has been sympathetically converted into accommodation. Once an Allsopp's pub as evidenced by an old picture on the wall. Was a Good Beer Guide entry for 6 consecutive years (1986-1991). New management September 2023.
