A dozen or so of us all piled off a restored East Kent Regent V in Sealink livery made for an incongruous sight for passers by. The pub opened an hour early for us at 17.00 so we enjoyed the exclusivity until booked opening time.

Mid afternoon- I cycled nearly thirty miles to get here and was thirsty.
All drinks being served from a table outside the front door. No entrance to the pub but it was warm and a good number of people around the front and in the garden. The garden has an old roadside signpost that was removed from the T junction outside - much more info than the replacement sign but impossible to see from the road. A lovely touch.
