A truly historic English pub, from its dramatic Tudor chimney stacks to its oak beams, open fires and panelled bars, all restored using traditional Tudor craftsmanship. There's been a pub on this site since 1597, but the current building dates from 1647. Opposite the entrance to Hever Castle, where Anne Boleyn spent her early years, this half-timbered and peg-tiled pub is a real gem. In winter, it boasts roaring fires. Winner of Pub Food Of The Year in Shepherd Neame Pub Awards, 2016.
