Background
Architecture
Although the present building dates back to 1758, the National Monuments Record have stated that it was constructed on earlier foundations. Today it benefits from a Grade II listing, awarded primarily for the pub's interior; the "beamed ceilings, benches, plank paneling and engraved glass screen" but also for its "group value and historical associations."
