Deceptively large two-roomed pub near the river with a small outside seating area on Thames Street. The name is first recorded in 1734 but there was a pub here before that possibly under a different name. Described on a lease of 1840 as 'newly erected'. Nicely done out inside and bright and welcoming. The traditional stories behind the pub's unique name have been written on the outside wall but any connection with the Old Gaol opposite (built 1805-1810, now apartments) is unlikely and omits the most likely explanation; that it was previously called the Saracen's Head and the sign was over painted. Oxford Branch Towns & Villages Pub of the Year 2023.
