The Hen & Chicken is situated at the north end of the village of Southwater approximately three miles outside Horsham in West Sussex. The building has existed for over 250 years and has been a public house for the last 160 years. The interior of the pub reflects its age with a wealth of exposed beams and open fires which are lit throughout the winter months, and historic photos of the surrounding area on the walls.

Now specialises in Indian food.
