The George Inn, Easton
The George Inn was originally three separate houses, reputed to have been built between 1610 and 1700. It underwent alteration a year after the completion of the nearby St George’s Church (Image]) when the current building was created as a residence for William Butts, the parish clerk of the church. The stone above the inn's main door a stone dated 1765, and it is believed that this date was inscribed on the building by Butts (http://www.geoffkirby.co.uk/Portland/685720/ Geoff Kirby Exploring Portland).
The George Inn is one of the oldest pubs on Portland and a sign over the door also claims it to be one of the oldest inhabited building on the island. For many years, the ancient Court of leet of the Royal Manor of Portland held its sittings here (http://www.portlandhistory.co.uk/the-george-inn.html The Encyclopedia of Portland History). It is a Grade II listed building (List Entry Number: 1203113 http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?uid=1203113&resourceID=5 Heritage Gateway).

The St George's Centre
Originally built in 1857 as a school, it continued until 1972. Built to take over 400 pupils, it was eventually closed and left abandoned, falling victim to decay, weather and vandalism. Local people made efforts to form a trust and took over in the early 1980s, converting the facilities into a community centre. A benchmark can be found below the stone tablet - see Image Grade II listed.
