The pub was rebuilt in 1803 which replaced a much older building, which had its own brew house and kiln.
Back to the present day, we have both BT and Sky sports showing over 4 large screens in the back sports bar.
To the front, we have our lounge. A place to sit and relax with a perfectly poured drink and maybe a bite to eat.
