Closed 22/11/2024, with change to community use applied for. Planning Application 142123/FO/2025 Change of use of existing public house (Sui Generis), to a community centre (Use Class F2(b). Withdrawn 17/5/2025. History: 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 was 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.
