A fine beer house, originally a barber's shop, which became an alehouse (Greyhound) by the end of the 17th century. It became the Angel in 1809 and was for a while owned by Joseph Early of the blanket making dynasty. It was said once to have had a cursed bar stool: anyone who sat on it either died or was taken ill (it’s no longer there, so you’re safe to sit at the bar now). An excellent front bar with low beams and a fine bay window; the pub goes back a long way behind this and has a small paved courtyard. The long-serving licensee takes his beer from Marston’s, with sometimes a guest from a variety of breweries. Wychwood Brewery is about 100 yards away but the beer is taken to Burton-on-Trent to be put in cask; a round trip of about 200 miles!

Historic Interest

Grade II. Shop and dwelling now public house. Late C17/early C18. Refronted C19.
