Four counties – Northumberland, Durham, Cumbria and Tyne and Wear – are visible from the frontdoor of this pub, a handsome, stone-built former drovers' inn and the community focus of a village with few amenities. A true family business, promoting local produce, and the sort of place where a brace of partridges can be traded for a pint of Mordue Workie Ticket (£2.75). Traditional British food with a regional edge comes out of the kitchen. Try crispy, twice-cooked Ravensworth Grange middle white pigs' cheek, black pudding sausage, braised red cabbage, creamy mashed potato and real ale gravy (£9). Four north-east real ales jostle for popularity with a winelist strong on Bordeaux. Ice-cream is made only a few fields away while organic bread travels barely 10 miles from where the cereal is grown and milled.
