A mid-19th.century Gothic-style house, later a country club that became a pub in 1959 and has changed little since. The rear entrance leads into a hallway with an intact off-sales hatch and an open staircase: note the walls have been varnished to look like they are panelled. A slatted bar counter with a Formica top and bar back shelves were added in 1959 and serve the two small rooms. Both rooms are basically furnished, one having an Edwardian tiled fireplace with a marble surround and green glazed hearth, the other a 1920s tiled fireplace. Upstairs, installed in 1959 but currently not in use, is a snooker room complete with billiard table and a small bar.
