Kate Bush gave her first public performance here, and when the pub faced closure in 2010 a campaign backed by about 6,500 Facebook supporters helped rescue it.

Local tip

Monday's New Moon nights of new music (7.30pm) cost £2.50, the cheapest way in. Typical evening gigs are about £15-£21 in advance with door prices £2-£3 higher, and some shows sell out, so book ahead.
