The Jolly Tar, Hannington

18th century village pub which is owned by Arkells of Swindon. Good beer, food and guest rooms. The name seems unusual for a place some 40 miles from the nearest tidal water, but apparently it was renamed in the 19th century by a member of the Freke family of Hannington Hall who had nautical connections.
