The public house or inn at the junction of the old Abergavenny to Hereford road with the road from the Llanthony Valley, or Vale of Ewyas as it is also known, is recorded in medieval literature dating from 1110 AD, making it one of the oldest recorded roadside inns in Wales. Its name comes from the nearby mountain, the Skirrid, or Ysgyryd Fawr, a few kilometres to the south.
