The White Hart is a long and thin pub with a dining area to the right of the bar and a pool table to the left. There is also a plasma screen in the pool area, but this was off and some low eighties background music was playing whilst a premier league game was in progress on the Saturday afternoon I visited so there is no Sky Sports. There were only four other people in the pub so there wasn’t much atmosphere, but the landlady was friendly and the Guinness went down a treat. There is a very limited standard draught selection and Doom Bar and Harveys Best were available from the two hand pumps. There was an advertisement up on the wall for some live music on the night I visited, but I’m not sure if this is every Saturday or just a one off. There is a car park on the other side of the A271 where this pub is situated and there is also a beer garden with some picnic tables at the rear of the pub. Smokers are well looked after in here as there is a very comfortable heated shelter with fitted tables and chairs that perfectly accompany the circular walls. I thought that this was a nice enough place, but I’d probably only ever pop in again if I was passing, which is unlikely.
