This building on Sheep Street was once a farmhouse, reputedly built circa 1540, and later converted into a public house, as the Golden Lion. The "Ye" is a more modern addition. It is a Grade II Listed Building. Old Victorian Ordnance Survey maps show that there was once a brewery directly behind it.
