Built in 1821/2, the frontage dates from 1852 when the bar was enlarged. A Grade II listed cosy, friendly local with beautiful hanging baskets, wood panelling and a delightful upstairs function room with original early 19th century windows, old prints, bookcases and a working bell push. The TV downstairs is usually silent.

The pub sign depicts the arms granted to the Plumbers Company in 1588. History panels inside record the gory story when on 7 November 1974 Veronica, Lady Lucan stumbled in covered in blood and with a throat injury, croaking that her nanny had been murdered. Lord Lucan simultaneously vanished from sight but it was only decades later in a TV documentary that Lady Lucan conclusively linked the two attacks to him.
