Very traditional long, low pub with about four rooms, the centre room where the main entrance is, has the counter. Mostly Robinsons beers with a couple of guests, there is a rake of eight pulls. Carpeted rooms with bench seating and old photos, there is grey plague on the walls but we’ll let them off as it’s such a good pub. GBG 2021 listed.

A full, or nearly full, range of seven or eight Robinsons beers, but instead of Unicorn they have a beer called Bridge House Bitter, named for the tourist attraction at the bottom of the hill. Apparently the locals wouldn't drink Unicorn out of loyalty to the pub - the nearby rival pub is called the Unicorn! This one sells well, I was told.
