Ye Olde Rose and Crown Gone are the rather strange suits of armour, fake weapons and farming
implements that used to adorn the walls of this large Victorian pub.
Since March 2008 Ye Olde Rose and Crown has been under new management.
Their aim is to turn this pub into a theatre bar and haven of culture
and they regularly have fund-raising events to buy lighting, rigging,
seating, curtains, sound equipment, microphones - everything in fact! I
wonder how much or little money they started with, but I support their
ideas of bringing a little culture to Hoe Street. Editor - January 09
I love the Nags Head,
but for those of us not based in the village, it's great to have
another choice of pub that's more centrally located. So, I'm happy to
have recently re-discovered the Rose and Crown. Although it doesn't
have the same ambience, I have been greeted warmly by the bar staff on
every visit, which goes a long way to making a pub welcoming. In
addition, they always have a choice of 2 or 3 well-kept real ales: I
can recommend the 'Pure Gold' this week. Worth a try when the village
is just a bit too far.
