Historic Interest
A local amateur football team called Ipswich Association Football Club first played at Brook Hall, Broomfield (opposite the pub) from Oct 1878 onwards. For some time they used a room in the pub for changing. Ten years later they changed their name to Ipswich Town & consequently moved to Portman Road. The name refers to a battle between between the British & Russians in the Crimean War. Photographs of this pub and more historical information about it can be found at suffolk.camra.org.uk/pub/501 Extensively refurbished in Nov 2011.
