Unchanged since a refit in the 1950s, this 17th-century cottage pub is blissfully free of such new-fangled gimmicks as food, TV, pool or fruit machines (or a juke box - removed by the present owners). In the quarry-tiled public bar, the counter front incorporates 17th-century panelling from an old chest and the bar-back shelves are topped with more such panelling. A big old stone fireplace, settle and quoits complete the scene. The lounge on the right has a 'front room' ambience. There are ply panels in an old counter, a Welsh dresser for a bar back, another venerable fireplace, settle and a grandfather clock.

A 17th-century cottage pub with two small rooms that was last refitted in the mid 1950s and is unchanged since. The quarry-tiled public bar has a counter front incorporating some some 17th-century panelling from an old chest, and the bar-back shelves are topped with more old panelling. There is a big old stone fireplace, a settle and quoits. The lounge on the right is like someone's front room and has ply panels on an old counter, an old Welsh dresser for a bar-back, another old stone fireplace, another old settle and a grandfather clock. There are no modern 'gimmicks' such as food, TV, pool or fruit machines, and the present owners removed the Juke Box. Only open Tuesday to Sunday evenings.
