See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Situated in an unspoilt country village, this welcoming pub is a popular focal point for the village community. Re-opened on 14th September 2024 under new management.

The current Grade II listed building dates from the 18th C and is part weather-boarded and part tile hung. The interior layout is relatively unchanged with separate entrances for the two areas. Various changes were made in both the 1930s and 1960s but the pub still retains plenty of character.

The R7 bus service from Chislehurst via Bickley, Petts Wood and Orpington now runs half-hourly for most of the day. The pub is located very close to junction 4 of the M25 - but just far enough away to avoid any motorway noise, allowing it to retain its rural feel.

The large garden includes a play area for children.

Note that closing times may vary according to the time of year.

Listed under both the CAMRA Pub Heritage Group and London Pubs Group (on their London Local Inventory) as having an interior of special national historic interest (* 1-star).

Local CAMRA Pub of the Year for 2010.
