Formerly a Morland's house of which the brewery divested itself a few years ago, the Chequers now advertises itself as a Brakspear's pub. Although the bar area has been opened out to make room for diners, it still retains its village pub atmosphere with its separate public and lounge areas. Despite its remoteness, the Chequers is a lively pub. The white house to the left of the Chequers was also a pub called the Horn, which closed some time before the war. A photograph of both pubs dating from about the turn of the century hangs on the wall of the Chequers. Tables at the front overlook the village green.
