This Grade II listed building dates back to the 15th century and claims to be the oldest inn in England that has been in continuous use as a pub. Francis Bacon is listed as one of the pub's former owners. The main bar area used to be dimly-lit, but has now been brightened-up, and the ceiling is supported by ancient wooden beams. Televisions on two walls show sports fixtures. Food is served in the public bar and there is also a separate restaurant area upstairs.

Information for this venue is provided by the South West Essex Branch of CAMRA
