The George Inn

We just couldn't walk past and not go inside to have a look and then order something rather nice!! The extra is the outside of the Inn.

"The George Inn established in 1676. Records of this coaching Inn go back to 1542 although the current building dates back to 1676 when it was rebuilt following a devastating fire. During 1874 the north range was pulled down, however, thankfully the southern range survived to be London's last surviving galleried coaching inn. William Shakespeare often frequented this inn, as did the novelist Charles Dickens who referred to The George in his novel Little Dorrit. This building is owned by The Natural Trust". Quoted from the board outside.
