This small old listed pub was built in the 18th-century and being the second pub to be established in the original village of St. Austell, is regarded as a classic locals' drinking pub, situated now very near the established town centre. Recently reopened (2021) and refurbished inside and outside repainted with attractive signage, giving a warm welcome to all who enter. 2 real ales are usually on with one being St. Austell HSD (Hicks).
