This 15th century cruck-framed building with its wealth of exposed beams has an old world air about it. The most interesting bar must be the public one, as its floor with huge stone flags and open fire give you the immediate impression that little has changed for many a year. There is a smaller room to the left with its own wood burning stove. The theme is continued in the lounge, which is smart and comfortable with furniture including high-backed and coaching settles.

The unusual set of three cash registerhand pumps is a talking point. These are reputed to come from the Cock in Fleet St, where Charles Dickens did his apprenticeship, and may even have pulled a pint from them! Restored to full working order they are not currently in use. The two bars are linked by a conservatory, to the rear is a patio for fine weather drinking. Clun is the starting point for walk number 7 in the Walking with Offa series.

Formerly a Three Tuns tied house it is now a free house featuring local real ales.

Food now available lunch times and evenings. Times etc. to be confirmed pending visit.

17th century with mid to late 19th century remodelling - originally a house and a shop. The public bar has a flagstone floor, a splendid inglenook fireplace with bare seating both sides with which continues around the front of the room attached to high back tongue and groove panelling. However the bar counter is modern and the bar back shelves of no great age. The lounge on the left has some more fixed seating and a splendid, but no longer used, unusual set of three 'cash register' handpumps (nick named 'Molly Lane signal box handpumps) on the counter, which is sadly also modern. The room has been opened-up to a room on the far left. There are also two small dining rooms on the far right (one has a large fireplace) and also a small pool room on the rear right.
