A community-owned pub, set in remote location signed off the B3157 between Weymouth and Portesham. Closed for 18 months the pub was bought by the village community, and re-opened in July 2025 when it's demise was threatened. It used to be popular with walkers from the nearby coastal path especially at weekends, so it is perhaps advisable to book ahead. A full new survey will be carried out when things have had time to settle.
