Recently re-opened after a change of management, the original pub was built in 1642 out of Northants ironstone, although has been added to in a piecemeal fashion over the years leaving it on different levels. This is evidenced with the low door lintel and three steps between the upper and lower bars, lounge and former games room. The pub was originally called the Sun Inn, although was changed some years ago to the Rowell Charter Inn to commemorate the granting of the Charter by King John in 1204 to hold a market and fair in the town each year. The pub opens at six on the Monday morning of the fair, the Bailiff of Rothwell rides out and reads out the proclamation opening the fair. Six constantly changing beers including those from local breweries are on offer. Beware that the Wainwright is fresh ale and not cask conditioned.

Misleading Dispense

This venue has been flagged by CAMRA volunteers as using a misleading dispense method to serve beer.

This is a 'Fresh Ale' - a keg beer served through a cask handpump. Find out more here Handpump Hijack.

If in doubt, we recommend that you Ask if it's Cask before making a purchase.
