Now residential.
Until its closure this two bar pub was run as a free house with one room filled with Napoleonic memorabilia and associated war gaming displays.
The external features date from the 18th century, but the timber-frame is much older.
A book called "A Suffolk Childhood" by the late Simon Dewes describes a village pub called the Five Horse Nails Inn? but we are not sure if he is referring to the Four Horseshoes by a different name - reference discovered by Bob Mitchell
