A lively and friendly traditional town pub, just a short walk from the High St, with a small canal-side garden at the back. Originating from the seventeenth century, it was formerly a brewhouse until the 1950s and there's a full history of the former licensees and the pub on the wall just inside the main door. The single room has a lively community atmosphere suited to beer and banter, and the TV shows major sporting events. Cobs and pork pies are available during the week. The three ales are from the Marston's range and cask beers are on offer on Tuesdays.
