A classic rural pub located by a stream on the eastern edge of Harden village and previously designated a Tetley Heritage Inn for its architectural merit. The building is reputed to have been constructed in 1550 and the site has been a farmhouse, coaching house, courtroom and prison. Although refurbished in July 2014, it retains many historical features, in particular, the "cell" room including a barred window and preserved inglenook fireplace dating back to the reign of William and Mary. There is a main lounge area, a smaller snug and a dining area to the rear which has been extended with an orangery. An extensive beer garden is located behind the premises. The pub welcomes walkers, cyclists and horse-riders and equine facilities are provided. The pub is popular for its food and occasional food-themed events are held. Although normally closed on a Monday, the pub does open on Bank Holiday Mondays.
