Originally known as the Comet (this being the name of a stage coach which once serviced Shrewsbury). Unusually sited below road level as the road has been raised since it was built. a pub has been on this site since the late 18th century. It was presumably built to service the Shrewsbury & Newport Canal which dated back to the same time period. The canal crossed the main road just in front of the pub, hence the raising of the road to accommodate the bridge over the canal (known as Comet Bridge). The section of the canal from Comet Bridge into Shrewsbury was finally abandoned in 1939.
A traditional pub with two areas separated by a long bar, it sadly has not sold real ale for many years, but has many committed regulars. Confirmed no real ale June 2024.
