Formerly The Crown Hotel the pub occupies a prominent location on Hatfield Road. It probably dates from the 1890s.
The 1901 Census return gives the following occupiers:
Mary Clarke, a licenced victualler, aged 54, a widow with her children Emily, Margery, William and Bernard, aged 28, 20, 17 and 13.
In the 1911 Census it's the identical family, described as Mary Clarke, a licenced victualler, aged 65, a widow with her children Emily, Margery, William and Bernard, aged 38, 30, 27 and 24. By this time William was the manager of the public house while the other three were assisting in the business, all of the four children being single.
