A late 18th.century drovers’ inn with three rooms including a characterful snug. The latter, flagstone-floored and beamed, is at the front and has an inglenook fireplace incorporating a bread oven and two antique settles. It has changed little since the inn's days as a resting place for cattle drovers. The small lounge on the far left, with a flagstone floor, has a counter dating from c.1965 and bar back shelves possibly of similar date. Through a low doorway is the public bar with similar counter and shelves which replaced the original small counter on the opposite side of the room. In the hotel part, the office/reception room, originally a private bar for well-to-do locals, has a colourful Victorian floor and curved partition walls. To the left of the passage, with its 'Old Worthington in Bottle' mirror, is a small dado- panelled room while on the right a room with two tiled fireplaces was, until 50 years ago, two small rooms.
