The pub stands in the centre of what most people would class as a village, however Ireby is a town. The medieval market cross giving it this status. Inside the pub you will find lots of wood. The bar coming from a pub in Leeds, wooden panelling from local chapels, a wooden floor in the bar area, all complimented by fine wooden beams.

The pub's Facebook page says "Hope to see everyone in 2026 after a little hibernation, recuperation, and redecoration". We understand that seasonal (and occasional) opening times apply. CAMRA recommends phoning the pub and checking the Facebook page to confirm that the pub is open before visiting.
