I used to frequent this pub in the 70's. Most of my mates would meet up on a Friday night. In addition, I played for the pub side in the south eastern league on a Saturday. After the game we would head back to the pub. We were quite successful for a while which led to the pub manager throwing out a challenge that there would be a free pint if we scored 6 and another pint thereafter. The following week we scored 11 and that was the end of that offer. Plenty more stories, singing "old Macdonald " and the fancy dress chaos!
