Built 18th century of granite with a mounting block outside. A passage runs from the front door to the rear and has an inner door with Victorian coloured glass panels. On the left is the public bar with a jet-black bitumen floor. On the rear left of the bar there was originally a wall extended across to form a snug. The last changes were in the late 1950s when the snug was amalgamated with the public bar - you can see the mark left by the door hinge very clearly and the room was extended back a little. The present bar counter dates from the late 1950s with a Formica top and replaced one which incorporated the post in the centre of the room. The mirrored bar back with shelves is old, but fridges are in the lower shelf area where up to 2001 there was a stillage of wooden casks. Long serving landlady Rose Angwin always insisted on serving beer from wooden barrels only which ceased on the retirement of St Austell Brewery’s last cooper Llew Jones in 2001.

The main bar has old panelling on the walls but the rustic brick fireplace has recently replaced a short lived (and unsuccesful) black slate one which in turn had replaced a red brick one which dated from the 1950's. Note the lighted candle in this area which is a reminder of the loss of the nearby Penlee lifeboat in 1981 and it is permanently lit during opening hours. On the right of the passage is a two-part room having been a children's room at the front in use for many years which was amalgamated with the private kitchen at the rear in recent times. The rear part has a superb granite fireplace with integral bread oven.
