First licensed in 1750, this grade II listed pub was rebuilt in 1898 and still retains many original fittings such as engraved glasswork, mirrors, servery mahogany, and ceiling Lincrusta panels. Called the Bricklayers Arms until 1887 and once owned by the family-run Liberty department store which had plans to use it as a storehouse but then sold it off. The ground floor bar is split level with a further room upstairs doubling as a restaurant and function room. Note the unusual raised snug at the rear with skylight and rails. The wide food menu includes click-and-collect and takeaway options. Clachan is a Scottish word for hamlet but it is not known what the connection was; mosaics at the entrances spell out the pub name.
