A pub in the south of the town: it was originally two cottages knocked together in the seventeenth century. Whilst run as an inn, it also served as a courtroom, parish council office and preaching room. The right hand side of the building is a newer section added in the latter twentieth century. See Image] for a look at the odd signs it has.
