A 15th Century pub with a major rebuild in the 20th Century. In CAMRA's National Inventory of Pub Interiors of Outstanding Historic Importance. As you enter you pass the entrance to the front bar and the cellar bar until the main bar is reached in the 'Great Hall'. Here are screened booths and a feast of wood panelling and iron grillwork. See the huge vats above the very long bar. Caution: closed Sundays.
