Freehouse
The Old Malt Scoop is located in the village centre, and is an old coaching inn dating back to the 16-century. There are now four pumps at the bar, three are usually LocAle beers. The pub serves good-quality home-cooked food, including traditional Sunday roast. Food is served lunch time and evenings. Occasional live music events. The pub is family and dog friendly.
Was in the Partridge family for 100 years until 1987 (they sold it in 1974 but continued to run it.) This village pub was revamped in the 1960s and is not changed since and is an example of how many pubs expanded in the 1960s. The front left dining room was formerly an office as the former licensees ran a wheelwrights and undertakers business from the pub. The laying out or wake table is still in the public bar. A small flat roof extension was added in the mid 1960s to create an extra room. The public bar was expanded in size and has a new quarry tiled floor, a stone bar, chunky wood timbers and ceiling & wall decoration. The old stone fireplace remains and there is another smaller stone fireplace with a bread oven. The parlour on the right has bare wood floor, a wooden counter (dated ?) and was two small rooms, possibly domestic, before the 1960s. There is a skittle alley in the rear buildings. There were casks on the back of the bar until the mid 1990s.
