Graham Coombs left this review about The Blacksmiths Arms
A good traditional village local of the sort you start to think doesn't exist anymore - the acceptable side of Humphrey's eccentricities. The main room is part carpetted and part brick floored with a nice little bar and a log-burner. To the rear is a quarry-tiled games room, with pool and table skittles, while to the side is a dining area which is genuinely rustic with some splendid settles. There is also a little garden to the rear. Being Sam Smith's there is just OBB on handpump, but it was in excellent condition, while food is simple pub fare, home-made, cheap and jolly good. It all goes to prove that you can have a good pub without having to have a range of strange beers.
