Part of the Ember Inns chain, this large, modern pub is tastefully decorated and comfortably furnished. It features three large fires (one real, two coal-effect) and pleasant patio areas. Normally serves six ales, with two guest ales from across the country. Often busy, the pub attracts a wide age-range. Regular quiz nights are Sundays and Tuesdays, and on Mondays and Thursdays, all cask ales are discounted. The pub also holds monthly tribute acts and occasional Meet the Brewer events. The pub sponsors the local football team, the Fieldhouse.
