This building has the date 1777 inscribed on its frontage. Originally a farmhouse, it was an inn by Victorian times. It was rebuilt in the early 20th century. Local legend has it that the property was once owned by an Irishman called Connah, and that this gave rise to the town name Connah’s Quay, previously known as New Quay.
