The King William IV
Wanstrow's remaining inn is now known as the King William IV. In a recent incarnation it was called The Pub. In previous times it was the King's Head, The Railway Hotel (when the trains arrived) before reclaiming its modern title.

Right on the crossroads
The main road crosses the middle of Wanstrow and naturally is a focal point. This building used to be the first pub, known originally as The Otter's Head; it changed to the Queen's Head, the Wanstrow Inn, before being split and sold to become the Post Office and a private residence. The role as the post office ended fairly recently as the service moved to the village hall.
A benchmark can be seen on the corner - Image
