Listed status: Not listed
This small, traditional cottage-style village inn was probably built in the 19th century and refurbished in the late 1950s/early 1960s, since when little has changed. Two tiny rooms - a public bar on the left and snug on the right - were combined and the then-new fittings included the brick fireplaces, plain benches all round, bar counter, simple bar shelves and tiled floor. The originally outside toilets are linked to the pub by an extension which houses a pool table.
Small old cottage-style village inn of traditional character probably dating from the 19th century. The beamed interior dates from a post-war refurbishment, and has been little altered since. The two former tiny rooms have been combined, with the bar on the left and former snug on the right. A plain brick fireplace of late 1950s/early 1960s style each end, plain benches all round and a bar counter at least 50 years old, simple bar shelves, tiled floor. The original outside toilets remain and are now linked to the pub by an extension which houses a pool table. Purchased by a group of villagers in 2016. The exterior has had a repaint but the interior is unchanged.
