This thatched 17th century pub on the village street, and a Grade II Listed Building, was originally two small shepherd's cottages before it extended to be a coaching inn. The small traditional rooms just ooze character, while an enclosed courtyard at the rear, famous for its Wisteria, leads to a pleasant raised garden. The skittle alley can also be used as a function room or as restaurant use. Note the small old Strongs of Romsey sign on the frontage (bottom left of building).
