Lovely red brick building on the edge of the town centre. Entrance is through a garden gate, but once inside it's been opened out into large areas with a bar counter facing the door and to the right. Two sets of hand pumps, but the front facing ones are redundant, and just two beers on the others, GK IPA and Morland Original. The latter was ok but too cold to taste at first (NBSS 2.5, £4.90/pint). Pounding pop music added to the delights of this ultimately disappointing pub.

Strongers . left this review about The White Horse

I recently revisited this attractive country cottage looking pub on a recent midweek evening when there was a strong local crowd in attendance. Inside is more modern than the outside suggests, but it is still a comfortable space. The hand pump count has reduced somewhat since my last visit back in 2014 with now only four remaining. Three of these were actually unused leaving GK IPA as the lone ale option. Standard and premium keg was also available. The dartboard has been moved from the right side of the pub to the left and televisions are now located throughout for showing live football. There was a bit of a chill in the air so the log fire was lit adding a bit more atmosphere to the already bustling pub. The staff were polite and I enjoyed my stay, although some may be put off by the lack of cask choice.

Pretty-looking brick-built pub, set behind a front garden. Greene King owned, it’s done-up fairly well inside with a mix of exposed brick, diagonal wood planks, black and white wallpaper - aimed squarely at not frightening any horses. Four pumps with two on, a rebadged GK house beer and Timothy Taylor Landlord, the latter of which was in pretty good shape. Whilst it’s not going to set the pulse racing it’s worth the 5 minute stroll along the road from the Brewery Tap to give it a try based on this visit. 6.5
