A seventeenth-century coaching inn in the unspoilt part of Tarring village. Thought to date from 1610 when it was known as The White Horse, it became the George & Dragon in 1855. The pub sign is unusual having been raised to sit above the main horizontal part of the sign support at a time when double decker buses used to drive up the high street. A traditional locals' pub, it has oak beams throughout and a choice of several split-level seating areas, including a cosy lounge with a coal-effect fire and an enclosed rear garden, with a suntrap patio. Take a look behind the bar where you will still see old Watneys signage.
