Situated halfway down The Hill opposite the village butcher, the number is 15 today but it has had different numbers on the door over the years. It was called 'The Rose and Crown' way back in 1854. This numbering was due to the newcomers to the village in filling with bungalows, and other old cottages being demolished.
