All that I can add is that my uncle's family managed it around that time, the Kellys. I worked, part-time, behind the bar for a time and I remember one of my uncle's sisters had an American boyfriend based locally. His mates brought a load of vodka in one night to be sold 'under the counter' but no-one liked it so my uncle's mum ended up lighting the fire with it every night.

Still a smashing little UNSPOILT pub.
