Reopened in May 2012 as a free house, this small two bar, family run, village pub, situated on a main road, is well served by buses and trains. The public bar at the front is popular with locals, especially those who gather to watch football on TV. The comfortable lounge bar at the back tends to be quieter and it leads on to the large secure garden behind the pub. This garden, with seating and children's toys, can be very popular, especially in summer. Locally valued therefore listed as an asset of community value.
