The Kings Head was situated on the A15. It closed following a fire in 2007.

According to the local paper the co-op has bought the building and plan to convert it into a small supermarket.

A building survey was conducted by Allen Archaeology using photographs taken by York Sills as part of a structural survey undertaken in June 2014. An 18th century building of coursed limestone, under an oak roof structure covered by reed, lath and plaster, with mud and stud partitions. The roof had coped gables with brick tumbling on the gable ends. Its earliest surviving features included a back to back fireplace of likely 18th century date. The public house was expanded in the 19th century with the addition of outbuildings, possibly a stable and coach house. These were demolished in the late 19th/early 20th century. The main building was also extended to the east and southeast in the 19th century. Further additions of a kitchen extension and new toilet block were added in the late 20th century. A fire partially destroyed the building in 2007 and it was demolished in 2013 to make way for a supermarket, though as of 2022 the site remained empty.
