A fine looking pub, with an equally interesting interior. The pub consists of a central mahogany servery, highly glazed Victorian wall tiles and floor mosaic tiles. This is a Marstons house, so Pedigree was the order of the day.

Unspoiled traditional local adjacent to the railway station.On entry you cannot help noticing the mosaic floor,high ceiling,and the green ornate wall tiles.The room to the right boasts a large selection of framed railway photos,plus a very large impressive stained glass feature behind the bar of a swan with a railway engine either side.Although the pub could possibly do with a revamp,a great deal of character would be lost in the process.There was a few cask beers on when i visited with the Marstons Pedigree being the pick of the crop.This pub is certainly worth a visit especially if you have a bit of free time before a train journey.
