Coventry Arms

The pub's history dates back to the 15th century and it has experienced numerous transformations over the years. One notable change is the replacement of the stillage with hand pumps, yet the bar area has managed to maintain some of its original charm. The pub's unique character is further enhanced by its small rooms, low ceilings, and a large open hearth. An intriguing feature of the pub is a mummified cat that was discovered in the roof and is now on display. This practice of placing cats in the roof was a traditional superstition intended to keep away evil spirits. The pub's exterior is equally inviting, featuring a patio for outdoor relaxation. Additionally, the River Stour flows peacefully at the edge of the car park, adding to the overall appeal of the pub. This establishment seamlessly blends history and modernity, offering a unique experience for its patrons.
