Hanging baskets adorn the front of this welcoming 16th-century pub; inside, the beamed ceiling, wooden furniture and inglenook fireplace add character. Look for the photographs of the pub in bygone days. In addition to the tiny snug/public bar there is a separate restaurant where dishes are made to order using fresh local ingredients by the landlord. Advance booking for the restaurant is recommended. Winter Hours vary.
Aug 2019 - now under new management. Old carpets removed in bar to reveal original parquet flooring.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: II
This is a venerable old building, two-thirds of which was refaced in the inter-war period when a flat-roof extension with the two entrance doors was added. It retains many fittings from this scheme. On the left is the former public bar with a small curved counter, brick fireplace and dado panelling. Note the ‘Jug & Bottle’ sign on a beam that has come from a door and is clear evidence of the removal of an off-sales. The former saloon is now the main bar. The fireplace within the inglenook is definitely interwar work, as is the dado panelling, and there is wall bench seating in the extension. Through a gap to the rear is another interwar counter, panelling and a ‘Private Bar’ sign from a door. The right-hand room is for diners and has a painted brick fireplace and dado panelling. Early 1980s extension at the rear.
Old building (400 years old?) set back from the road, with two thirds refaced in 1930s including a flat room extension for the two entrance doors. It retains many fittings from the inter war renovation. On the left is the former Public Bar with a small curved bar counter, 1930s brick fireplace and dado panelling. Note the 1930s 'Jug & Bottle' sign on a beam that has come from a door and indicates the removal of the off-sales.
The former Saloon Bar, now the main bar, has the figure '1' on the back of the door, a 1930s looking bar counter that slopes inwards and a good bar back which may date from the same time but most lower shelving has been replaced by fridges. The fireplace within the inglenook is definitely 1930s work, as is the dado panelling, and there is wall bench seating in the 1930s extension.
Through a gap to the rear is another 1930s bar counter, dado panelling and a 'Private Bar' sign from a door on a piece of dado panelling. The right hand room is now set out for diners and has brick fireplace which is painted cream, and dado panelling. An early 1980s extension at the rear is a tiny area with a grandfather clock and beyond that the toilets.
