Small and wonderfully traditional 17th century village pub with a strong locals following. There is a pleasant garden area at the front of the pub featuring some covered seating cubicles. Regular folk musicians jamming sessions on alternate Thursday evenings. Three changing cask beers. Food is available in the form of cakes, Cornish pasties and locally produced sausage rolls. Coffee is supplied by Doe & Fawn in nearby Milton Keynes.

Asset of Community Value

Originally a row of three cottages it became a pub in the mid 1930's. This small rendered locals pub was last changed in the 1960s when a wall was taken down (markings on the ceiling show where it was) but it still has two room, now with accessed via a gap in the wall after the door to the right hand room was converted to a window. On the left the small low ceilinged public bar has a counter with Formica top which looks of the 1960s, a bar back of similar age - note the sloping shelves in the lower section which in the past enabled bottles to be stored on their sides. The tiny room on the right on a slightly lower level has three scrubbed tables but has lost its fireplace. The brick fireplace in the left hand bar and fixed seating in both rooms also looks of the 1960s. On the wall on the right there is a person's height measure - a brass ruler on a wood backing - it last use was to measure people charged at Scotland Yard!
