The Rats Castle is on Hatfield Road at its junction with Sutton Road from which this image was taken. The Rats Castle is not a unique name for a pub, a Google search revealing another in Guildford, and a restaurant in Faringdon in Oxfordshire. The alignment of the gable end walls in the photo appears to show some distortion in the photograph, but this is the true arrangement, the flank wall visible to the right being parallel with the Hatfield Road frontage out of sight around the corner in the distance.
