The pub is found in Littley Green, Essex, CM3 1BU.

Victorian brick and tile pub in a rural part of Essex. Formerly the brewery tap for the now closed Ridleys of Hartford End. Ales are drawn direct from casks on gravity dispense in the half-cellar. Renowned filled huffers (giant baps) are available lunchtimes and evenings plus, of course, larger meals!

We have visited this pub once, seen 4 different beers and tried 1 of them.
