Back street pub which is food led, but retains a traditional feel, with boarding to shoulder height on the walls. Now part of the Big Smoke chain of pubs with a good range of craft keg beers and ciders. Decorated in a contemporary style which is still in keeping with original features. Covered patio and large garden to rear. The pub was the birthplace of the Society for Preservation of Beer from the Wood in the 1960s. Public parking available nearby in Church Street. Function room available. The changing beers are often from local breweries. Quiz night Tuesdays.
