This historic coaching Inn, known locally as the Crooked House, is claimed to date from 1460, although the building itself is 16th century with later additions. It was at one time East Molesey’s first post office. The 18th century highwayman Claude Duvalier hid from the Bow Street Runners here. The naval officer atop the weathervane looking through his spyglass for customers, originally stood on the parish church looking for the congregation. Full of nooks and crannies, suitable for romantic liaisons. The large garden has a children’s play area in it. Stone and wood floors, walls decorated with old photos of the area. Three TV screens for sports. Quiz night Tue. Occasional live music. The changing beers include at least one local one. Accredited for beer quality during 2023.
