There's plenty of Brewer's Tudor dark beams in this pub, and an original "Bass on Draught" window survives at the front. This is a small corner-site pub which has the look of always having been a basic boozer. Furnishings are in the traditional pub style - soft green upholstered banquettes combined with round tables and stools. A wealth of historic memorabilia and pictures of characters from bygone years adorn the walls. This is a friendly locals' pub.

Having closed in early 2023 when the licensee retired, the pub was subsequently acquired by Windmill Taverns and reopened under its new name in late May 2023. Card payments only.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

The main feature here is the original Victorian bar-back; the  bar counter also looks original.

Rebuilt in 1891 this single storey small corner pub with a balustrade on the exterior, apart from losing internal divisions, is little changed for many years. It has a fine original five-bay bar-back with mirrored panels, several etched with floral designs, with a central ballustraded bay. The old bar counter with a matchboard panelled front with simple brackets looks original. Along the exterior walls are good seating bays of indeterminate age, but they are certainly not original. Note the 1920s ‘Bass on Draught’ with the red triangle on several exterior windows and also the ‘To Ladies & Gentlemen’s Toilets’ blue etched and frosted glass panel in the door at the rear. There are attractive narrow leaded lights above all the exterior windows. The small snug on the left is a recent addition; the woodwork creating it is old, but has clearly been re-sited from elsewhere.
