This characterful old coaching inn, with low-beamed ceilings is often busy. Its village-centre location makes it convenient for the Shropshire Union Canal and the Staffordshire Way.

Two cosy snugs displaying early prints of the district and brewery memorabilia flank the central bar. All three areas have log fires in the colder months.

There is a traditional skittle alley upstairs which can be booked as a function room. Major Freeview sporting events are shown.
