There are 2,111 adults living within walking distance of the Kings Arms and no competitor pubs within a ten-minute walk. The nearby canal and boatyard attracts ample tourists to the area for those looking for a barge holiday.

The quality of the surroundings, new décor, a welcome range of food & drinks and 58 internal & 96 external covers will give locals and visitors a reason to visit the pub.
