A lovely village pub, very traditional, great food! 10 minutes from Wetherby racecourse, beautiful riverside walks nearby. Family friendly.
The word Pax means ‘peace’ and the pub originally got its name from after a major dispute between the tenant workers and the estate that owned the land, that of the Hatfield family. The original pub was in fact called The Hatfield Arms, but whilst this pub was in tatters -- reflecting the relations between the workers and the estate -- the violent dispute was resolved over a meeting on the neutral ground of the pub and a new pub was built under the present name to commemorate this historical event.
