One of the two surviving public houses in the village. There used to be many more in the past, not all of them open during the same period. The earliest record of this building as a public house dates from 1871, when there were a total of five public houses in the village. Previously it appears to have been a private house. The building is Grade II listed and is mainly early/mid 17th century with a 19th century extension and other later features. The sign above the door with a coat of arms is relatively recent. At first floor level there is also a very faded sign saying real ales. It probably had a brewery name on it too but this cannot easily be deciphered. Today the pub is a free house.
