A high quality Tudor-style refurbishment by Joshua Tetley & Son, soon after they acquired this premises in 1935, has left an impressive legacy of joinery work, especially on the staircase, robust fitted seating, good brick fireplaces and restrained glasswork in the main lounges and function room. Tetley's themselves went on to preside over increments of post-war change here, including considerable opening-up, but they made efforts to match the quality of the older work – and indeed declared this one of their 'Heritage Inns' in 1989.

From the car park there is an inner lobby with fielded panelling to two-thirds height recently painted 'gastro pub' grey. A passage with fielded panelling to two-thirds height has a staircase with panelling leading to a function room. The passage finishes in lobby bar area - both passage and lobby bar have modern wood floors. The servery has a curved bar counter with a fielded panelled front, a good but modern pot shelf and modern bar back fitting. To the left is a small area with new tiled floor, an inter-war fireplace of brick and stone with carved wood in relief mantlepiece, fielded panelling to two-thirds height, and some fixed seating with a glazed baffle on the left.

The room on the left of the passage now the dining room has glazed baffles on the left and right, inter-war fixed seating with that on the right being in two bays, bell pushes on the left side, an inter-war wood surround and brick fireplace with a mantlepiece of wood containing a row of shields. A glazed screen on top of the seating where the two bays meet was removed in 2015. On the right hand side of the passage is the tap room, a small room still with its inter-war door and leaded top light, new wood floor, an inter-war brick fireplace and around the room are bell pushes but the fixed seating that lined the walls was ripped out in 2015. To the rear right an opened-up area with more fielded panelling to two-thirds height and some fixed seating. Passage to the ladies on the far right has more fielded panelling to two-thirds height.
