Neighbourhood pub serving the immediate community, though strangers are warmly welcomed. The compact bar area is a testament to the sporting prowess of it's regulars, with several tables laid out for dominoes at all times, a dartboard and a prominent sports TV presence along with the obligatory display of sporting trophies. There is also a display as a tribute to local boxing legend Colin Hough who has run the Shrewsbury & Severnside Amateur Boxing Club for over 60 years. Separate lounge with pool table.

Pub is bit rundown, the handpumps are in the public bar.

Historic Interest

Was once a part of the large local estate of the Shrewsbury & Wem Brewery.
