Historic Interest
Southampton's only Grade I listed pub. Historic England list UID: 1092060. The building has lots of history as Wool House was a former maritime museum etc. (full details can be found on their website). Built by Cistercian Monks from Beaulieu Abbey following the 1338 French raid on Southampton. It is the only surviving free standing medieval warehouse in Southampton. During the Napoleonic Wars it was used for French prisoners of war and some of their names can still be seen carved into the roof beams. The 20th century saw it used by boat builders and haulage contractors among others before becoming The Maritime Museum from 1966 to 2011.
Conversion
A pub that occupies a 14C Grade I listed building that was constructed by Cistercian monks from Beaulieu Abbey following a 1338 French raid on Southampton. For many years it was an important wool store and later became a prison for French sailors during the Napoleonic wars, some of whose names can still be seen carved into the roof beams. Later still it was used by boat builders and haulage contractors before becoming a maritime museum and an arts space. The pub is a stunning conversion with a new slate floor and plenty of design features to draw the eye, principally the spectacular ceiling and striking curved staircase. The space is uncluttered which lets the lovely old building shine. The first floor is available for events. Meals are served excepting Mondays and Tuesdays. Real ales are available from Dancing Man, brewed on site. There are also real ciders.
