This unspoilt back-street pub is a former beer house that has only had a full license since 1966. Tucked away, but located quite close to the magnificent early Victorian railway station. The beer is served on gravity from a small temperature controlled room behind the bar or from a new gravity servery located in an outside building. Darts and cribbage teams are active here, otherwise friendly locals and good conversation are the order of the day. Treasure it, there are few left like it.
