This 300-year-old local is the only true free house in the village. Situated on the northern outskirts, it is hard to find but well worth the effort. Conversation abounds in the single L-shaped, half-panelled bar. The top of the bar is most striking as it is topped with shiny 2p coins set in resin. This is a good place to watch live sport on the huge projected TV. There is a suntrap garden to the side and back, with plenty of seating and a covered smoking area. Up to two guest beers are served and beer range may vary a little from that shown. Very good value meals and snacks are now served until 4pm on weekend afternoons. The bus services in the village 950m away are now just at school times so of no use.
