Historic Interest
Hull oldest licensed premises dating back to 1729
Three star - A pub interior of outstanding national historic importance
Listed status: II
A rare survivor of the many pubs that lined what was once old Hull’s principal thoroughfare. The key interest for this guide lies in its transition from Victorian wine merchant to public house, whilst retaining much of the layout of the former. The refitting was done in 1926 for local company T. Linsley & Co. – the former wine merchant’s office became the front smoke room, the warehouse became the rear bar, and the cosy upstairs rooms continued their function for meetings. Original fittings from 1926 include the downstairs panelling (that upstairs is more recent), bar counters and front fire surround.
A rare survivor of the many pubs that lined what was once old Hull’s principal thoroughfare. The premises has had many uses over the years, including tobacco dealing (traditionally symbolised by an Indian Chief - ‘black boy’!) but the key interest lies in its transition from Victorian wine merchant's to public house whilst retaining much of the layout of the former. The refitting was done in 1926 for local company T Linsley & Co - the old wine merchant's office becoming the front smoke room, a serving bar installed in the rear room (which itself may have been a warehouse at one time), and the cosy upstairs rooms continuing their function for meetings. Original fittings from 1926 include the downstairs panelling (that upstairs is more recent), bar-counters and front fire surround.
Designated a 'Heritage' pub by Tetley's in 1983, it was their only house in East Yorkshire to enjoy this rare acclaim. Threats of alterations in 2001 were averted following CAMRA’s successful application for statutory listing.
