The bar dates from 1935, but has been moved forward & extended.
An article in the Eastern Evening News 30th May 1936 credits the design to Donald C. Chastney, surveyor for Bullard & Sons Ltd and construction to R. G. Carter of Drayton.
The sign was painted by Miss K. Skelton of Horsford. 3 single and 3 double bedrooms were
provided for letting. "The house includes a fine bar, a good smoke room, and a large
lounge where parties of any number can be accommodated''.
