Tarted-up significantly since my last visit. Knocked-through now with three areas and an ill-advised dark blue interior paint job given its position away from the afternoon sunlight. A little of its earthier roots remain, with a pool table in a rear right room and snooker on the telly. Just Brakspear Gravity on but it was a nice fresh pint (NBSS 3.5).

June 2009
A little forbidding from the outside and I have to admit to not expecting much when I went in. But to my pleasant surprise was greeted by a friendly barlady along with a very good pint of Hooky Dark (which is usually awful; Brakspear was the other ale). The pub's interior was pretty spartan, however there was a dartboard I was positively encouraged to use. The toilets were a bit poor and could do with some work. Perhaps worth the extra two minutes up the hill from the Bird on this showing, for a couple of games of arrows. Rated 6

Locals' pub up hill out of town, knocked through into one room with a games area behind the bar. Car park and decked garden hidden round the back. A couple of Brakspears Ales on pump. Pleasant enough if passing but not worth the walk uphill unless doing the Brakspear Trail. Also note doesn't open weekday lunchtimes.
