This pub occupies the last two cottage buildings in a terraced row and has a rear patio. The pub is Victorian and in undressed brick, with a black and white lower frontage around the main door. There are in fact two entrances and there are rounded sash windows on the upper floor.
The interior is on two levels, as the pub occupies two former buildings. We entered into the squarish bar area and you have to go up a few steps, under a large beam, to actually get to the serving bar. The decor is wood and white, with a white ceiling and patterned carpet. There is a small tiled fireplace (blocked) and a pool table and dart board. Mirrors, drawings and beer mats provide the interest on the walls. The immediate bar surround has a tiled floor and a wood panelled bar. Down a little passage there is a box room in the same decor with paintings on the walls (for sale?) and other pictures. There was a TV here with Epsom horse-racing. There was no music. The service was really friendly and just one other guy was in at out early visit.
Beer; usual taps stuff with Banks's Bitter, Brakspear Bitter, Wychwood Hobgoblin and a decent Vale Brewery's Red Kite on handpull
A nice little pub, friendly with good beer - definitely worth a visit.

Quite a strange shaped little locals pub, just off the beaten track, yet only a couple of hundred yards from the main street. Pool table, dartboard and TV in the lounge area as you enter. They actually have a Manchester dartboard in here, but it’s also apparently a Lincoln board as well. Up a few steps to the bar area on the right. 3 handpumps on the bar but only one was on selling Adnams Old Ale. According to the landlord they had had a good week and they’d sold out before the barrels in the cellar had settled. Had a pint of the Adnams which was very good. Very friendly landlord and landlady, it’s a proper local.
