A trad two-room Bathams house (main bar and rear snug) with all three of their ales on. Absolutely heaving due to a wake, so we had to make do with a seat outside which was a shame but you can’t knock the place for doing a roaring trade. Probably the best Bathams of the trip, my pints of Bitter (NBSS 4) and Mild (4.5) were nectar despite the biting cold. Surprised to discover this only opened as a Bathams pub in 2019 – it was a Marstons pub flogged off to New River Retail who wanted to demolish it! I’d love to pop back in when it’s quieter. Doesn’t make the GBG’23, which I find very strange, have the local branch fallen-out with Bathams or are they just a Pump Guide bunch? 8.5

My first visit since the takeover. An excellent pint of Bathams, friendly service, great looking pub. What's not to like? Well worth a visit!

A fantastic looking pub with a traditional interior. Another busy and bustling Batham's pub on our Friday evening visit. The interior had a good sized front lounge with the bar facing you as you enter. There was also a small rear snug with its own access with a door to the left after vacating the front room. The Batham etched glass front windows was a fitting feature, to the age and style of the building.
