Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

This delightful rural pub in the tranquil village of Calverton. The building dates back to 1790, but started life as a butchers and slaughterhouse; it then became a local store and post office before it became the local pub

The pub has one L shaped bar with seating for drinkers to the right as you enter. Four handpumps on the bar, but only two in regular use.

To the rear on the left hand side of the bar the tables and chairs are available for diners.

At the far end there is a log burning stove and, on either side, the windows look out onto the garden and the fields beyond. Behind the pub the garden has tables and chairs and a children's play area in the top right hand corner. There is additional outdoor seating to the front of the pub.

Historic Interest

Building dates back to 1790.
