An old (early 17th century) drovers' inn on edge of village that retains two bars and has a garden that leads down to River Stour, which forms county border with Essex. When this tiny road was the main route from London to Ipswich this would have been the first or last Suffolk pub seen along the old turnpike. For many years a Toll booth also stood close to the bridge over the river. Today only the constant drone of traffic can be heard from the nearby village by-pass.
