Historic Interest
Asset of Community Value registered 17th May 2016.
In 1832, the Green Dragon was recorded as fully licensed under landlord John Miller (White), who may have been the same as the J. Miller recorded as publican in 1855. In 1876 the publican was John Hopkin (Post Office Directories). Until the 1920s, the pub was part of a dairy farm whose surrounding farm buildings were demolished to make way for the car park. During the Edwardian period, the Green Dragon had a reputation for quality catering which drew in carriage borne customers from the surrounding area (Ottewell 1990).
