The pub was still open in 2008 Image but had closed by 2022 and was being converted to housing. It was described by CAMRA as 'A large house built in 1932 for Ramsden's brewery by local architects Glendinning and Hanson, and designed with a central lounge, an advance on the old-style drinking lobby, equipped with some seating and containing the main servery'. It was partly 'modernised' in the 1970s but retained some original features until the end.
