Multi-roomed old village pub which has expanded into the cottage next door. In around 1940 it was purchased and refitted out of Irish Sweepstake winnings and retains the fittings from a refurbishment of that date. To the right of the entrance, the door numbered '1' leads to a small bar with a quarry-tiled floor, a curved counter and an inglenook style fireplace, all installed c.1940 .Through an arch to the right, another quarry-tiled small room has a c.1940 brick fireplace and an antique settle, To the rear is a tiny room, with a grandfather clock and piano, served from a small hatch to the back of the bar. From a separate entrance on the left, another bar was created out of two small rooms of a cottage with a quarry-tiled floor, bar fittings and a brick fireplace from c.1940. The only changes are the adding of a copper bar top possibly in the 1960s; and an early 1980s extension added to the rear of the right side creating a further room.
