Former CAMRA National Pub of the Year (2008 and 2009) and regular regional and multiple local Pub of the Year winner, this small gem was rescued from dereliction in 2002. A two roomed free house with impressive garden. Thirteen handpumps dispense an impressive range of beers, always including a porter and a stout. In the warmer months you can relax in the pub's multi award-winning beer garden. Regular folk music features on Sunday evenings and quiz night is Monday. No meals but cheese and onion baps and pork pies.
