Improve This Listing

Dating from 1642, a small pub in the middle of Hastings Old Town which is a magnet for tourists and locals, the inside having timbered panel walls and pictures of local hppenings. The pub blends with surrounding buildings and has a sun trap garden at the rear. Although Ore station is nearer (1000m), it is a more difficult walk and has a lesser service.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

A fine old half-timbered pub, partly rebuilt after a fire in 1925 and with lots of panelling typical of the time. The rear area was a smoking room but is now open to the rest of the pub. The two front doors led into two spaces with a small, screened private bar on the left-hand side. The delightful little recess on the left is oversailed by the property on that side. The counter seems interwar but the back fitting generally appears to date from the postwar period (?1960s). Upstairs is a small room covered with fielded panelling installed in about 2009 and brought in from Indonesia

General information about historic pub interiors

Refitted in the 1930's with panelling to picture frame height throughout the pub. Had a small separate snug but is now just one room with original counter but new light wood top, bar back and 1930's brick fireplace under an inglenook. Gents retains its original two massive urinals but is otherwise modernised. Ladies/Disable has a figure '2' on the door. Update 3/09 from Baz Deacon - brick fireplace lost to make way for a staircase to lead upstairs - the panelling for the rooms upstairs is being made in Indonesia! Probably no longer worth including?

In 2008 it was decided to make this small pub more viable by creating a public room upstairs. In order to do this the 1930s brick fireplace was removed and a staircase added. The room upstairs is a similar size to the lower bar and has fielded panelling on the walls (from Indonesia) made to look similar to the original 1930s panels downstairs. The room is mainly used for meetings. The lack of floorplan made this Marginal R I prior to the change and so it is now Marginal No now. Opens at 5pm Mon to Fri.
