This late 16th century grade II listed oak timbered cottage is the oldest building on Wednesfield High Street and for over 100 years brewed its own beer which ceased around 1956. Records suggest that it has been licensed since at least 1782, when a Samuel Marston held the licence. Run by the Gregory family for a long time it was known by the locals as Gregory’s. The front original two rooms, a small bar and larger lounge with pool table have been opened out by the removal of the doors, the lounge still retains its original fireplace. To the left of the bar is the original inglenook hearth and cast iron grate which was part of the owners living accommodation and was separated from the public bar by a wall. In 1997 the pub was extended at the rear by building a new lounge with dart board. During the work the old well which was used to extract the water for the brewery was uncovered. This has been preserved and you can now see it in the rear lounge.
