Now fully open after refurbishment from a fire that closed off access to the inside for several months.

Check Facebook regarding food menu as still limited at the moment.

The Churnet Valley Heritage Railway, Caldon Canal and The River Churnet all have to be crossed from a large car park to reach this destination pub. The range of beers and ciders is extensive, sourced mainly from micro-breweries. Two Beer & Cider Festivals are held each year. Food is served daily; portions are large and reasonably priced- there is also a regular Hog Roast. A rural gem in The Churnet Valley, well worth the search. The pub is adjacent to the Churnet Valley heritage railway station, Consall.

AWARDS: Staffordshire Moorlands Pub of the Year 2013 (Merit), 2014 (Merit) 2015 (Merit). Staffordshire Moorlands Sub Branch Pub of the Season (Winter 2013).
