Full Description

Early 19th century. The only public house in the village it was remodelled in 1937 for Samuel Smith’s Brewery by Leeds architect H Lane Fox. The central corridor was enlarged into a Public Bar and a ‘Tudor’ interior of modest design and homeliness. Matching , 3-light leaded windows in both the Public Bar and Lounge set the thirties tone. The wood panelling, bench seating, curving bar counter and contempory doors, most elements of the pre-war refurbishment are carefully preserved. A community asset. Nominated for inclusion on the Local List of Heritage Assets.
