A comfortable, welcoming pub on the A47, with a separate dining room. The central area has two built in settles with original curtain rods still in place giving the pub Heritage status. Roasts only are served on Sunday. 'Only Fools and Motors' group meet here one Saturday each month at 3 pm during the summer with up to 300 cars attending and music from 4 pm.
Late 17th century Grade II listed country inn with a gabled front and porch. The public bar retains a rare pair of fixed settles. The two settles which are fixed to the ceiling with iron stays are believed to date from 1840, or possibly earlier, making them some of the oldest pub fittings we have featured in this series. Sadly they have been reduced in width to make a wider passageway into the room. In the settle on the right hand side is an old pub game of pitch penny - no longer in use as they have no pennies and cushioning has been added to the seating back in recent years. The room is two-part with a central fireplace and on the right the former living room was taken into public use about 40 years ago and is now a dining area. At the rear what was a butchers shop in the past is now a small family room and has a 1950s brick fireplace.
