The pub is found in Consall Forge, Staffordshire, ST9 0AJ.

Maybe the most secluded pub in Staffordshire? Next to Consall station on the preserved Churnet Valley Railway and the Cauldon Canal. Mooring for narrowboats available. If travelling by car you'll travel down the valley and never imagine there was a pub at the end as you travel through a nature reserve, a gated road. If you have a SatNav then trust it! Small discount on real ale for card carrying CAMRA members.

We have visited this pub once, seen 7 different beers and tried 2 of them.
