Oldest building in town (dates from 1470). Now Grade II listed with a rare Crown Post roof. Good ambiance and beer quality in the three rooms. The pub sign is a picture of the Diana, the landlady.

This is one of only three remaining mediaeval buildings in Haverhill; it survived the great fire of 1667, which destroyed most of the town. (One of the other two survivors is also a pub - the Rose & Crown)***
