The Wheatsheaf is an excellent pub set in delightful rural surroundings with many interesting old artifacts which decorate the charming interior.  The pub has a full size Boules pitch and has a team which plays in the local league.

Isca Morrismen have visited the Wheatsheaf regularly over the years and we had our usual friendly welcome in this unspoilt country pub with a good range of real ales.

Do come and see us at some stage and if you have a liking for tradition then you will be made very welcome.  For those males amongst you who enjoy a pint or two and would like to keep fit then you will be ideal as a dancer.
