A canal-side pub rumoured to originally have been built around 1105 and holding a licence to serve ale since 1248, which would make it one of the oldest pub sites in the country, although the current building is largely 18th century. Traditionally styled, it still retains features like exposed beams, bench seating and an open fire in the bar. The handpumps are in a line along the wall resulting in it being known locally as 'the pub with no bar'. It has a historic pub interior of national importance for this reason, and also for the historic fittings and tiled floors. Popular with walkers, cyclists and dog owners, it is situated next to a country park and nature reserve. Although a little off the beaten track, the pub is well worth a visit.
