The Poacher has been a public house since at least the 17th century. It was originally two cottages knocked together, the bay windows showing where the front rooms were. Since then it has been used at various times as a courtroom, parish council office and preaching room whilst still operating as a pub. It's now a popular High Street pub, under new management in 2025 as a Craft Union pub. It serves up to 30 different gins and a dozen wines. The new management aim to create a clean and safe environment for drinking and eating. There is a large car park for customer use.
