The Royal Oak's a good old pub, Eliza. I have to say that, in the great fox-hunting debate some years ago, it was the local HQ of the hunt supporters. But that's what you get in rural areas, so you either put up with it or don't go there! It was also the location of a folk club until quite recently, when the organiser got tired of organising it.

I like it mid-week for a nice, quiet pint.
