Three Cranes Inn, Rotherham

The oldest secular building in Rotherham town centre, originally built as a town house in 1470. With Tudor and Victorian additions it later became the Three Cranes Inn public house and operated as such until 1907, when the licence was surrended. It was used as various shops until it fell into disrepair in recent times. It was bought by Chris Hamby in 2011 and restored and reopened as Hamby's Antiques shop in 2015. Following closure in May 2019, it was refurbished and reopened as a pub again on the 10th of August. Though called a mirropub, it is on two levels. The Heritage rooms on the two upper floors have the most period features but but can only be viewed by agreement. Reopened under new management on 6/7/24 and Real Ale is no longer on sale under the new ownership, but craft beer on draught and in cans and bottles is. There are also 10 ciders, some of which may be classed as real by CAMRA, and speciality cocktails. Shuffleboard, Skeeball and other games available and there is a rock night every Wednesday from 6pm. The bar can best be described as vibrant.
