CLOSED February 2026, tenants retired. May 2026; This pub is for sale at a price of £1,700,000 via Rightmove Commercial. Unfortunately, they are marketing it as a "former pub" with significant potential for residential conversion and new build.

This old-fashioned, original back-street local was in the Guide for 26 consecutive years, having been selected since 1995! Originally a Taylor Walker house with the sign still outside, now a free house for many years live sport is shown and the two guest beers are often sport related. A Redemption beer is frequently available. Always welcoming with friendly staff,it has two darts teams, a fortnightly quiz and summer BBQs in the prize winning garden. Just a few yards from the New River Walk.
