I am informed (2014) that the pub has closed. It was consequently sold at auction on the 6 June 2011 and acquired permission to convert the house into 4 residential properties.

Local knowledge, further pictures, and licensee information would be appreciated.

I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

All emails are answered.
