Attractive hilltop pub in a 14th century building that was originally used as a chandlery, making sails for ships that used the nearby wharf. It was licensed to sell alcohol in 1605. This traditional village local has home-cooked food and a large beer garden which includes a small bar. The famous author Daniel Defoe and the Peasants' Revolt leader Jack Straw reputedly frequented the pub. Adnams Broadside often replaces one of the other beers.

Historic Interest

Multi-level, timber-framed and plastered, with a modern single storey extension at the front
