About the Pub
Fire damaged the pub in 1684 and the front wall was rebuilt using Dutch bricks. It is said that Charles I used to visit the pub, under armed guard, whilst he was held prisoner in Carisbrooke Castle. The bar, now one room, used to be made up of five small rooms with one being licensed to conduct civil weddings. There was a hidden tunnel leading into the Castle grounds and another leading to a building in the town centre. Much ancient flagstone and wood inside, and an enlarged outside seating area. May close earlier Friday-Saturday depending on trade. Music Friday-Saturday with a quiz Sunday.
