Built c.1830, this became a pub c1858. The bar was extended back c.1960 and refitted but does retain an old baffle in the rear section. A panelled passage runs down the middle of the pub with a hatch to the back of the bar. The star here is the splendid untouched snug on the right with fireplace, fixed bench seating, bell pushes and baffles all from around 1920. The snug is not always open but you can have a look on request.
Note the blue plaque celebrating this as 'The Birthplace of J M Dent, eminent publisher'. Joseph Malaby Dent (1849 –1926) produced the Everyman's Library series.
