The Fieldhouse replaced an earlier pub and was built with a large function/ball room. In the 1970s, the name was changed to the Claregate and over time the rooms were amalgamated into two large but distinctive areas with seating arranged in bays. The dance floor remained underneath the carpet. In 2015, the pub was threatened with demolition and conversion to a nursing home, but an active campaign by the locals managed to secure an ACV and the closure was cancelled. In Spring 2017, a major refurbushment was carried out to change the Claregate to a Marston's Generous George brand. Although the emphasis is on dining, it offers a good selection of Marston’s beers for the local community. A Tesco local store is located on the large car park. The bus stops outside the pub.
