Formerly the William Stanley, the pub was acquired from Wetherspoon by Antic in 2016. The name comes from a previous name for the local area and a former local landmark pub (the Goat House) which was nearby. Large windows on to the street give a light and airy feel to the 'shabby chic' interior, typical of the style used in many of the company's pubs. The three sections of the large bar area have differing styles of wall decor, featuring clocks, kitchen equipment and pictures among other features. The regular Volden beers are now supplemented by two guest ales. Note that when Crystal Palace are playing a home match, the pub will use plastic glasses. The kitchen is currently closed, but customers are allowed to bring/order in their own food.
