Very attractive white coloured half-timbered grade II listed building dates back to 1585 and is reputed to have been an office used by John Bradshaw, one of the signatories to Charles I's death warrant. There is local controversy that the pub may have previously been known as the Irish Tavern or as the Kings Head. Internally the building's age is apparent in the low beamed ceilings and range of floor finishes in stone, tile, wood and carpet. Around the main bar there are several other areas. A small room can be reserved for private functions. Car parking is limited to on-road parking although there is a public car park close by. Live music on most Friday or Saturday evenings.
A restored 17th century timber framed building. Has a colourful tiled floor in the entrance and a small area on the left has old (not Victorian) fixed seating. The bar on the right has old Victorian fixed seating, the quarter circle bar could be from the 1950s, bar back is modern. On the far right is a small area with a newish (date??) bar front and more old seating. A passage from the main door to the rear. Small room on rear left has a modern brick fireplace, new dado panelling (some may be old). Small middle rear room has quarry tiled floor and a hatch to the back of the servery. Rear right small pool room has possibly old dado panelling and oldish wood surround but modern brick fireplace and another hatch / folding door to the back of the servery.
