This unusual-named pub is located 50 or so yards from the nearby Sun Inn (you cross the small, but quaint 'River' Lea to get here), this is a McMullen's pub, which majors in carvery on a Sunday, and one half of the pub was given over to this solely, and well-populated it was too. The second half (the interior is a chunky L-shape-) is bar-only, with a dartboard and various bench, standard and raised seating. Some interesting displays on the walls - old photos, framed newspaper clippings and trophy shelf above the entrance to the Gents, and despite a laminate bar apron, the entire floor space is carpeted, which gives off a pubby ambiance. AK Bitter, something called 'The Ford' at 3.8% and Rivertown Atlas - the latter £3.90 and rather good. The Sun is more Olde Worlde, but the L&SA shaded it on this visit.
