A historic weatherboarded building with a spacious interior. It has a dartboard and big screen for sport. There are regular quiz nights and good value food.

In addition to the three regular beers, seasonal specialities from the Greene King range are sometimes available.

Believed to be haunted by at least three ghosts (including highwayman Dick Turpin) and possibly one of the most haunted pubs in the UK.

Historic Interest

This pub is first recorded in 1851 but may date back earlier as a beer-house. Originally two separate cottages, the weatherboarded part being 18th C. Later owned by Whitbread, this originally served the rural hamlet of Southborough (named after South Barrow, a manor house which existed in the early 17th C belonging to the Bishops of Rochester). Grade II listed in 1973 by Historic England, which states: "C18 and C19 parallel ranges. Once 2 cottages. The left side is C18 2 storeys weatherboarded. 2 casements. Tiled roof. Flat wooden hood with brackets over door. The right side is C19 and of higher elevation. Brick. 2 C19 casements and later ground floor bay. Tile roof."
