9 Southover High Street, Lewes, BN7 1HS (View on Google Map)

Corner pub on Southover High Street. Good views of the Castle from the garden. The present building dates from 1888 and the front portion has been a public house since at least 1891 when an Emma Goldsmith is named as “Inn Keeper”. Her family had owned the address for the previous 50 years however, so it may be that the building was a public house even before the present building was there. The property has been extended over the years and now encompasses two former cottages that were built with the original row in the 1850’s.
