A two room pub conveniently situated on Castle Gate. A beer garden is situated at the rear of the pub
UPDATE 2020.
It still retains a fine inter-war inglenook fireplace (now with modern wood burning stove) in the front public bar and the counter front is as described but the Formica top has been replaced with an overpowering modern top and the bar back is now modern. The rear room has no old fittings. This pub has therefore been re-categorised as having local interest only.
The former description is shown below.
An old coaching inn on the former A1, hence the stables at the back and the coach arch through which is the entrance to the bars. In the front Oak Room, the fine linenfold bar counter front is 1960s work but the inglenook fireplace is some thirty years older. The rear public bar has a curved bar counter from around 1970. The Tudor-style doors into both bars are from the 1930s.
