Conversion into a micropub of two tiny historic cottages close to the site of Leicester Castle. The building had been unused since it was an antiques shop in the 1990s. It is next door to a former pub on Castle View which closed many years ago. Previously operated by De Montfort Students Union for the University, but now under new ownership.

The pub is a grade 2 listed Building:

Historic Interest
