A large thatched pub with a spacious garden and separate restaurant housed in a rebuilt granary barn (dating from 1480) which was relocated to this site in the mid-1980s. Also on site is an outdoor play area. Disabled toilet.

Historic Interest

Sometimes listed historically as being in Little Whelneatham. A report in the Ipswich Journal** on 15 Sep in 1802 states that there will be auctions at The WAGGON, Sicklesmere on 20 & 23 Sep 1802. According to callers to BBC Radio Suffolk, this was an older name for the Rushbrooke Arms. The pub dates from the mid 16th century. Photographs of this pub and more historical information about it can be found at suffolk.camra.org.uk/pub/853
