The interior was refurbished in 2017 and consists of: a front lounge bar, which appears to be two rooms knocked into one, stretching the full width of the front elevation; and a similar-sized rear public bar with skittles table and darts.

Historic Interest

A former Ind Coope (Burton-upon-Trent) pub. Its name relates to its close proximity to the site of Countesthorpe Railway Station. British Railways closed the Leicester to Rugby line and its stations, including Countesthorpe, on 1 January 1962. Although closure of the railway was not related to the Beeching Report (which was published later), a cul-de-sac behind the pub is named Beechings Close, and the gardens of the houses on the west side of the close meet with the boundary of the old line.
