A large town centre pub acquired by JD Wetherspoon. Completely refitted and extended, it now has a modern open-plan interior with a conservatory and beer garden at the rear. Eight real ales and two real ciders available, with the usual Wetherspoon food menu available all day.
Historic Interest
A 1920 photograph shows the then new ‘Waggon and Horses Hotel’. It had been completely rebuilt on the site of the earlier ‘Wagon and Horses’, clearly marked on the 1905 OS Map and recorded in a photograph taken just after the railway bridge was built over Market Place, in 1897. That same year, Matthew Henry Habershon published his ‘researches’ on Chapeltown, where he refers to the ‘White Horse’ inn. He writes: ‘The ‘White Horse’ public house in the Market Place has upon its signboard the date 1720. The other old house, the ‘Wagon and Horses’, is no doubt as ancient.’
On leaving the pub, turn left - after a few metres, on the pavement, you will find a rare remnant of a long-gone Sheffield Brewery, a boundary marker for Thomas Rawson & Co.
This Pub serves many changing beers and 2 regular beers.
