This double-fronted, bow-windowed, cream-painted building dates from the mid 19th century with a significant addition in 1904. The original premises are recalled in a photograph of 1880 displayed inside. Surviving etched glass windows lettered "public bar", "saloon bar", "club room" and "coffee room" help give some idea how the building would have been divided and operated around 100 years ago. Displayed on the top shelf above the front bar are an amazing and possibly now unique set of five stubby ceramic-handled handpumps sitting on a pewter base inscribed "Hurst & Co. of Southwark". These were formerly the top of the casing which was built into the bar counter and were in daily use untyil a recent refurbishment. A Young's house since 1978, it was formerly a free house owned and run by Miss Sybil Starr who was born in the pub in 1901, and was licensee for 39 years from 1939. A pub frequented by loyal Young's drinkers and others who appreciate good beer and the pleasant atmosphere that pervades this hostelry. There is a large conservatory / dining room at the rear of the pub. Good food is served from 12-10 each day. The menu is seasonal and food is cooked to order. The provision of Young's seasonal beers (and occasional guest beers from other breweries) has been suspended because of the decrease in trade resulting from Covid-19, but is expected to be reinstated when trade revives sufficiently.
