Cask Ale

The former Old Greyhound came under new ownership in 2023, when it was renamed. The owners are now serving a new Mediterranean menu, albeit with regular favourites such as burgers, steaks and fish-and-chips. The proprietors are keen to support local breweries such as Langton. Accommodation is available.

Historic Interest

Formerly owned by the All Saints Brewery (Leicester), then by Ind Coope Brewery of Burton from 1929. After St Cuthbert's Church, probably the oldest surviving building in the village, timber-framed, mostly from the 18th century but partially 17th century. This used to be a coaching inn on the road from London to the north that became the A6. It was the Old Greyhound until 2015.

A grade 2 listed building (Listing reference 1180270). The listing description reads:

Public House. C17, raised a 1/2 storey later C18. Timber framed with brick nogging, rendered and whitewashed. Welsh slate roof hipped to left, with brick ridge stack. 3 storeys of 2 windows. On 1st floor 2 3-light centre-opening casements with top lights, and 2 c1800 2-light casements over. On ground floor a long open verandah porch of c1900 with wooden balustrade and columns supporting a Welsh slate hipped roof with 2 skylights. Bracketed cornice. Central gabled opening leading to 6-panelled door with bracketed hood. Either side of door is a 4-light casement with leaded lights.
