Dating back to the 16th century with low ceilings throughout, this food oriented pub retains three small rooms. Flagstone passage from front door to rear. The main bar on the left has a counter that looks inter-war but likely to be just post-war (Publicans Rustic), old brick fireplace, old fixed benches but the partitions and panelling a mixture of old and new. The room on the right opens up onto the flagstone passage and has a Delabole slate floor, a small old stone fireplace and old wall benches. At the rear is a tiny locals bar dedicated to the Roseland Rugby Football Club. It has a counter being an extension to the bar back fitting, which has a modern wooden fitting in the top half but the lower half could well be over 50 years old.

A dining room on the far right brought into use in recent years has an old stone fireplace and old window seats. The staff serve from a floor level some 12 inches below that of the bar one. ‘Bomber’, a local of at least 40 years says the pub interior is very much as it was in the 1950/1960s – possibly a partition wall may have been removed but he is not sure.
