Began life as a Chester's Brewery house, the George & Dragon. It changed to the Phoenix in the 1990s but in doing so jettisoned the cask ale. After a number of years in the keg wilderness, it became a more-upmarket food-led Greene King house. It reverted to the George & Dragon name in February 2014. This is a long, low building with a mock-Tudor appearance to its exterior, inside it is a series of areas created from the former rooms. Comfortable and well appointed, it attracts a good mix of clientele. Coach House Gunpowder Mild was added as a regular beer in 2023 after being put on during the local CAMRA Mild Magic campaign and the locals enjoyed it.
