I've not been here for 10 years. The front 2 rooms looked similar to how I remember but the back room had lost all it's sporting paraphernalia (and was therefore an improvement). We sat in the rear yard and soaked up the sun as it passed over towering conker trees in the distance. Really nice place.

Early evening and already starting to get busy. There were new faces behind the bar, but we were told that the landlady was on holiday. There was a very friendly pub dog which being a cross between a Springer and Cocker Spaniel was described as a Sprocker.

Saturday lunchtime, the advertised 12:00 opening did not materialise but we managed to get in at around 1pm after a pint in the nearby King Alfred. We were made most welcome by the enthusiastic landlady and enjoyed a few pints in a good convivial atmosphere.
