This picturesque, thatched, two bar pub is worth seeking out. The dispense of beer is still by gravity, direct from casks. Bar billiards can be played and twister. Accompanied dogs and horse riders are welcome (there is a paddock for latter nearby). Bingo has replaced the Folk Night on alternate Wednesdays, the quiz nights are popular and still remain.

Traditional food, mostly home made including vegetarian options are available. But behave yourself, otherwise you may find yourself in the stocks that are situated in the garden.

The building dates from the 16ht or 17th century.

Generating a dynamic map. This may take a few seconds or more, depending on the number of pubs in the town and the speed of your computer.
The boundary line (in blue) is an approximate representation of the boundary of Shottisham which has been hand-copied from other maps and should not be taken as definitive.










On some slower computers (hand-helds, old machines, for example) displaying the maps may take a long time and even cause the computer to hang. If you have this problem, please click here
All information is presented here in good faith and believed to be correct at the time of writing.
The addresses of old pubs (numbers and sometimes even street names) may not always coincide with the building's current address (if it's still standing), as street names sometimes change, as do numbering schemes
