14:00 visit. Having stopped at Willsborough Windmill for an event we came here for a first visit. The beer festival was in full swing, with a stillage in the front garden, and a marquee area. Looked like a good selection of ales on offer. The local Morris Men turned out too. Nice place.

A pleasant couple of pints with the added benefit of log fires and chatty bar staff.

It was a delight to feel the comfort and warmth of log fires on a fairly miserable November day.
