Expect one dark and one light ale from varied national breweries. Dating back to at least 1550 the pub was damaged by fire in 1684 when the front wall was rebuilt using Dutch bricks. It is said that Charles I used to visit the pub, under armed guard, whilst he was held prisoner in Carisbrooke Castle. The bar, now one room, used to be made up of five small rooms with one being licensed to conduct civil weddings. Much ancient flagstone and wood inside, and an enlarged outside seating area.
