A welcoming free house popular with all ages. There are three rooms off the bar with an eclectic range of furniture and fittings, including cosy sofas and real fire in one. The two real ales are predominantly from south Wales and the border counties, often with at least one such as Brains Reverend James or a Wye Valley beer. In addition to darts and cards, there is a quiz on Tuesdays and occasional live music at weekends. Buses stop outside and parking is available a short walk away.
Historic Interest
In 1949, owning co. Fernvale Brewery was taken over by Webbs Brewery.
UPDATE 2016.
The old Victorian counter is gone and the small public bar it was in and the passage from the front door have been knocked through so the pub is now open plan in layout with modern décor.
The former description is shown below. The accompanying photographs show the interior before the work took place.
A four-roomed Victorian pub, which has recently been modernised and reopened by Celt Experience as their brewery tap. It still retains its Victorian counter in the small public bar with only room for an old bench and a long narrow table, but the old bar back has been recently replaced. On the far left is a small room with a modern hatch/small counter. Note the old ‘Bass’ adverts above the inner doors in the passage from the front door, which also has a hatch to the side of the bar. The rear room has what looks like an old hatch that has been modernised and now has settees for seating. The former lounge on the right is now a dining room. A games room has been opened in the cellar with pool room and table football. It is easy to spot in this unspoilt town with 'The Wheat Sheaf Hotel' in relief on the bright yellow frontage but difficult to park so head for the village hall car park, a short walk away.
