Sadly closed - a note on the website says: "Following the Government’s instruction on the 20th March 2020, we have temporarily closed our doors to protect our guests and our team from the risk of spreading COVID-19. We are now focusing on the immediate future and how we can continue to make people’s day during the temporary closure of our pubs. We will also ensure that we are well prepared to re-open when it is right to do so." https://www.blackhorsehookwood.co.uk/ The Black Horse refers to the overnight ride from London to York made by Dick Turpin, on his horse Black Bess in 1737 and the pub is the second ‘Black Horse’ Inn in Hookwood (the old Black Horse Inn was at the top of Horse Hill).
