This half-timbered inn is
decorated in the style of a medieval merchant’s house and dates back to 1600.
It has a separate restaurant to cater for visitors to the village with a serving
bar, while the main bar is rather snug with little seating for the locals. It’s
run by an eccentric family whose son needs a little bit of work on maths when
it comes to serving behind the bar, as some of our members were short-changed. Upstairs
is a beautiful function room with timber beams lining the celling, but the
ambience of it is ruined by the approach because of the licensee leaving their
possessions in view in the staircase and the proximity of the kitchen next
door. The beer was in good condition, but after such a long meeting it was a
refreshing change to pop over the road to the Swan for a pint of Bathams before
beginning the journey home.
