The pub is one of the town’s oldest buildings.It has been standing for over 300 years and has seen life as a prison and a makeshift morgue. Originally a farmhouse, it was converted into an in at the end of the 18th Century.In the early 19th Century it was themeeting place of the Town Council. It's on the pedestrianised area now and is reputed to be haunted. This bustling place has a sheltered beer garden at the back. Live music features in the evening sometimes.
