Voted by the branch as Country Pub of the Year, this was the first award for this village pub remote to most of us on the northern border of the county and branch area, which some members present were visiting for the first time. It is run by daughter and father team of Harriet and Dale and is achieving more than creditable NBSS scores, many by Kent CAMRA members who pass that way and notably for the house beer brewed by Rother Valley. Our hosts expressed pleasure that CAMRA had recognised them and their pub with an award, well deserved. The picture shows Dale and Harriet receiving the award behind their bar.
