The City Arms, High Street frontage
The building has a complex history, Historic England describe it as of 16th century origin but the blue plaque to the right says there were earlier buildings from 1427. The same plaque says it was a gaol from 1506 but that it was an inn by 1639 and has remained so. HE however say it remained a gaol until 1800. Both may be true as it was not unknown for an inn to serve as a bridewell or temporary gaol. Parts are modern rebuild after a fire. See the Historic England listing for a fuller history (grade II, list entry 1382996).
