There are real fires in both lounges and a beer garden to the rear. No meals but sandwiches and pies may be available. Close to Leeds-Liverpool canal with access nearby this is a great walkers' pub; dogs are welcome and treats provided. Live music is on at the weekends but the pub is quiet at other times.

Retains a four room layout with changes to the rear left room to make it larger. The small front vault has a counter not that old with two large bracket features and the dado panelling is difficult to date. The best room is the front right small room with old fixed seating all around the room with bell pushes located on top of the seating but a piece of the top half of the wall has been removed 'for supervision'. the front left small bare boarded room has more old fixed seating but has lost its fireplace, the bar counter here is possibly 1950s? The rear left room has some old fixed seating on the right hand side, on bench on the left possibly moved from elsewhere and a 1960/70s stone fireplace - clearly expanded and probably two rooms knocked into one. Bar counter not that old, three baffles here look modern. Not enough.
