Re-opened in 2011after being closed for two years, it was then one of Barnsley's few free houses; it picked up a Barnsley CAMRA Pub of the Season Award in its first year. The open plan layout has three distinct zones - for seating, games and bar drinking. Behind the pub is a suntrap paved seating area. It was shut from March 2020 until October 2021 but underwent a thorough and very tasteful redecoration during this layoff. Please note that children are not allowed in this pub.
