This imposing 200+ years old coaching inn dominates a roundabout at the top of Forge Lane. A Greene King outlet offering a selection of their ales plus a guest. Many years ago, part of the pub was known as the Balaclava Room and commemorated Godfrey Morgan, Viscount Tredegar, surviving the ill-fated 'Charge of the Light Brigade'. The pub was once part of the extensive Tredegar Estate. The larger of the two dining areas is partly divided by an attractive fireplace, visible from both sides, and which enables the rear section to be used for private parties. A family dining room leads to a garden with a children's play area. A large custom-built heated smoking area is next to the rear entrance, and a large marquee in the garden provides a covered outside drinking area. Poker night Tuesday (7.30pm) and Quiz night Sunday (8pn).
