The pub was built in 1935, architect Joseph Berry, for Stones brewery of Sheffield. It has an unusual V-shaped layout dictated by the angle of the road junction, with one entrance to each wing. The entrance on this side leads onto two further doors labelled 'Tap Room' and 'Out Sales'. The latter witnesses to the previously common practice of pubs selling drinks for consumption 'off the premises', a function now served by supermarkets and 'off licence' shops. The off sales bar has now become a kitchen. The form of glazing and terrazzo floor are typical details of the period.
