A pub that has claims to be the oldest in England (note the old cellar area below bar level), with parts maybe dating from 1002, when it was residence of Queen Emma. When it actually became a pub is debateable, but certainly by 1637 it was a 'brewhouse' and by 1677 it was known as the Royal Oak. The main entrance is in a very narrow alley off the pedestrianised High Street. Inside it is cosy with plenty of oak paneling including the fairly large bar which usually serves two local ales. At either end of the main seating area are side rooms, up steps on the right or down steps on the left leading to the original cellar. There is additional seating outside on a small patio area.
