Public parking across the road. Splendid former local main Post Office in the centre of town. Faced in Portland stone, designed in the Georgian style. Most of the interior wood panelling is original. Mainly a quiet pub with music only. Can be noisy when full (at weekends). Food served every day, typical Pub Food Menu at reasonable prices. The establishment is owned and run by the Mighty Medicine Brewery from Whitworth. During the warmer weather, outside seating is also provided. Closing times will depend on trade.
