Evening visit - just after 7 opening time on Friday!
I’m pleased to say that this National Heritage pubs in is still open, and by the looks of things unchanged since Magnus’s visit (perhaps with the addition of a decade or so of extra grime) and an awning outside the public bar. A large table of about 8 locals in Nell’s lounge, a couple outside and a young couple only in the public bar who were interested in quirky pubs!
It was hard to find (not registered on the Satnav). Glad to have found it but I had to agree with my wife that it could do with a bit of a clean. I’d go back though.
A Salopian ale also on (pale, not sure which one) that was not in great form but acceptable.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Butcombe - Bitter (or Original Beer) | 4.00 |  | Well kept, just £3.60 a pint. |

Three of us arrived lunchtime and joined in the hubbub of conversation with a few friendly locals. I did not list all the beers available
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Butcombe - Bitter (or Original Beer) | 4.00 | | Notably bitter, clean tasting and refreshingly dry |
| Hobsons - Best Bitter | 3.80 | | Malty and citrus body with a rich bitter palate |

In Church End, on the National Inventory of Historic Interiors, this unspoilt 15th-century country pub on the village green near the church has been run by the Roberts family since 1911. The three-room interior comprises a small snug with a large inglenook, serving hatch and settle wall, a small sideroom (no bar), and Nell's Lounge with another inglenook, beams and its own entrance. Three guest ales on offer, often from local breweries, and Weston's Old Rosie draught cider. Live music Sunday evenings. A popular beer festival is held in November
We have visited this pub twice, seen 2 different beers and tried both.
