Asset of Community Value

Mid to late 18the century pub with a delightful small bar front-right (indicated as 'SPIRIT VAULTS' on the door glass). Beamed ceiling, red-tiled floor, old benches, and a higgledy-piggledy servery on the left. However, the room has been enlarged and has a modern brick fireplace and alterations to the servery. At the rear is a modern corridor, and on the left a lounge on two levels - probably former two rooms - which is traditional in style but all modern.
