Built in 1810 - it should be celebrating its 200th anniversary this year. Unfortunately the owners ceased trading on Monday. Workmen arrived to change the locks and board up the ground floor windows, but many staff refused to leave, creating a news story for the regional television stations. In 1891 the Queen's grandmother, Princess Mary of Teck, stayed here for six weeks and the hotel now bears her coat of arms above the entrance.
