The Old Crown Inn

The Old Crown Inn Snarestone - Oldest Pub in the Village

In 1766 there were four alehouses in Snarestone and local records from 1772 reveal that George Gadsby was the landlord of a Crown Inn but the names of the other alehouses are not known. By 1785 the village had two pubs and by 1795 it appears that the Crown Inn was the only survivor of these early establishments. The Gadsby family had a long association with the Crown Inn that lasted until 1820.

With grateful thanks to Mick Stretton for his help in compiling this short history.
