Mid evening visit on a chilly June Wednesday. Several in.This pub reopened earlier this Spring after a prolonged period of closure. Sympathetically refurbished, perhaps a bit more comfortable than hithertofor. The old games room/cellar to the rear is now laid up for dining.

Lunchtime visit, I had not been here for very many years when there were three pubs in the village, now it is down to just the one. I had a good chat with the long standing landlord and found the place very welcoming. We stayed until 3pm closing.
