Grade II Listed in 1973 this Wetherspoon pub was first recorded as The Crown in 1743. The building probably dates from the 16th century and has been a pub ever since. By 1790, The Crown became The Chaffcutters. By 1850, it had become the Crown again. It was The Crown in the 1970s but after the apparently eccentric landlord Bill Agate left it became the Alcock and Brown, Galleria and by 1995 Cheerleaders only to revert to The Crown by 1998.
