From The Good Pub Guide 1983:
The surprise here is the remarkable collection of malt whiskies - the last thing you'd have expected from this plain-looking but friendly stone pub. There are over 200, including different-aged versions of the great malts, and prices are fair. More humbly, it has well-kept McKewans's 70/- and 80/- and Younger's No. 3 on handpump and good, reasonably priced basket meals such as scampi (£1.65), lasagne (£1.75), chicken Kiev and trout (£2), various curries (£1.20). There is a fruit machine. The countryside along this road is a fierce blend of coaltips and beautifully forested hills.
