The inn existed by the publication of Hurstpierpoint's 1842 tithe map and was probably built for the opening of the new London-Brighton turnpike around 1810 which later became the A23. That road was diverted to the east at the beginning of the 1990s bypassing the village and downgrading the old road to the B2118. Viewed from the junction with Reeds Lane.
