See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

The Inn dates back to the mid 1700's and is a recently refurbished country pub. Named after Admiral Rodney who harvested local oak from this area for his ships and who was subsequently honoured by a pillar which was built on the adjacent hill. Indeed the pub is used as a base for walkers exploring this area to see the pillar and the breidden hills. There are two fireplaces on opposite ends of this large one roomed pub with a centrally placed bar. Oak beamed throughout with the restaurant area on the right. There is a notice on the front of the pub which reads "" Under these trees in sunny weather, just try a drop of ale however. And if in tempest, rain or storm a couple then to make you warm. But when the day is very cold then test a mug of twelvemonth old. Rest & regale yourself, 'tis pleasant. Enough is all the prudent need. That is due to the hardy peasant who tolls all sorts of men to feed. Then muzzle not the Ox when he treads the corn, nor grudge honest labour its pipe or horn.."
