The landlord and landlady managed to steal a couple of hours away from the pub today... and of course we spent them supporting our good friends at the Weeting Steam Rally! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🚜

What an incredible event. Stunning steam engines, classic machinery, fantastic food, plenty of cold drinks, and so many brilliant stalls to have a browse around. You can really see the countless hours of hard work and dedication the volunteers have poured into making this weekend such a success.

Events like this are what make our little corner of Norfolk so special. They're a celebration of our proud farming heritage, amazing engineering, and the wonderful community spirit that keeps local traditions alive.

It was absolutely buzzing today, and tomorrow is set to be even bigger. If you're looking for a great day out, go and show them some love—you won't be disappointed! ☀️🚜

And once you've had your fill of sunshine, steam and shopping, make us your final stop on the way home. Whether it's a well-earned meal, an ice-cold pint, or just one last cheeky drink before putting your feet up for the evening, we'll be ready to welcome you.

Here's to supporting local, celebrating our countryside, and making the most of a fantastic weekend. ❤️🍻

Well... that's that then for now!. 💔 Thankfully, Tuchel doesn't get to pick your plans. 😅🍻

Unfortunately England's World Cup journey has come to an end..we had an incredible time experiencing it with you all and are still proud to be English! But life goes on and we've still got a cracking weekend ahead and you dont need to go far at all!

🎶 Michael is back hosting our Music Quiz this Sunday from 8pm, straight after our Sunday Carvery—and this time he's promised a properly easy one (lol), so no excuses!

🚜 It's also officially the start of the Weeting Steam Rally! Massive credit to everyone involved—they've been working incredibly hard all year, especially over the last few weeks, to put on another fantastic event for the village. We can't wait to see it in full swing..checking out Weeting Rally for more info!

We'll be serving lunch and dinner today, tomorrow and Saturday, followed by our Sunday Carvery from 12pm.
