At one time, a real Marston's gem - beer-wise and architecturally. Even a winner of a Pub of the Month award in 1996. Two rooms at the front, plus the large bar and lounge towards the rear. A meeting room is available upstairs too. Things went wrong though with too many changes of licensee, and the loss of the cask ale. Changes occurred in mid-2013 however when real ale made a welcome albeit too brief a reappearance.
