Historic Interest

Also listed at Market Place (1855 + 1869 + 1874) A cock-pit existed in this pub at least as late as 1767 & it's said that its remnants can still be seen in the cellar. Legend has it that a tunnel ran from the pub to King Charles's palace & was used by the monarch to travel between the two buildings. A report in the Ipswich Journal** on 12 Sep in 1821 states that : Auction of The Bushel, Market Place, Newmarket...(Description)... Apply to Mr HOLME, Star Inn, Newmarket.
