Recently drove passed the pub, looks permanently closed. Really hope that its not the end of what used to be a very traditional pub. This place has so much potential sad to see it closed.
Wonderfully unspoilt local. The community centres around landlord Ken, who is the font of all knowledge about the local area. I hear he even drives the school bus! The pub hosts real people wanting a taste of real life- they even sell hens eggs from the top of a piano! A joy to behold...
This pub is no longer open but is the start of an amazing walk across Dragon's Back
An old fashioned traditional pub. Beautifully kept beer and excellent pork pies,freshly delivered Tuesdays and Thursdays. Perfect for a lunch break on a walk.
Visit this pub while you can, it's the sort of place that's closing down all the time due to local apathy and gastro pubs. Small selection of excellent beers and a knowledgeable landlord.
Great sign on old disused pub. Don't go there for dinner you won't get any. You will find lovely walks and views from the pub garden.
I'm awarding it five stars because of how it made me feel. It was everything I had hoped for in a English country pub out in the boondocks. Genuine and personal. I slipped into an oddly pleasant state of melancholy as I pondered over all the pints had under those beams, all the cigarettes smoked, the laughs had before driving home three sheets to the wind.
A cold and refreshing pint of lager after a nice hike that will stay with me for a long time.
Now I have a nostalgic love of this place and I have no idea why. The fire burns but its freezing cold. The landlords front room is off the bar so you have to get him or his wife to stop watching television to serve you. You can buy pork pies on the bar and help yourself to mustard. I grew up in a village not far from here. It's never changed in 40 years. Quiet words turneth away wrath apparently... also not having a head does that (check out the pub sign). The ceilings stained with a thousand ghosts of late nights and cigarettes. This is a historic diamond in the mud. They dont make em like this anymore and you kind of see why when you are there. Don't take a dog or hog the fire and I dare you to try and find the pool room...
