Small, traditional local dating from 1708 and rebuilt in 1902, retaining original embossed windows and decorated with memorabilia. It has the original outside toilets. There is a quiz, usually on the third Wednesday of the month. Four darts teams play every week and their trophies are on display. The only food is roast lunches on Sunday lunchtimes, booking advisable. There is an attractive small walled garden and a comfortable heated smoking area. May close early on Sundays (about 7pm)
