The main pub in the town was new when it replaced an older inn around 1450, though the Georgian facade hides a much earlier Tudor timbered building and was also the village corn exchange for a while. Beyond the inn is Mansion House, another building that dates from the 15th century which was extended and refronted in the 18th century. Between 1849-53 it was home to St John's College before moving to its current home to the north of the village. In the distance on the right are Image
