Thought to have been a pub but there is a degree of doubt.

All we know about this pub is a single newspaper report:

To be sold by auction, all the household furniture, and other effects, of Mr John Bromley, at the Compasses Inn, Ipswich,; comprising five 4-post and tent bedsteads, with cotton and moreen furniture; 4 stump bedsteads, 5 featherbeds and bedding, 3 chests with drawers, about 2 dozen of chairs, dining and other tables, excellent 30 hour clock in wainscot case, pier and dressing glasses, fenders, fire irons, glass and earthenware, 3 motion beer engine and pipe, 2 pigs, 3 hens and a cockerel, quantity of wheelwrights tools, 1 bench, sundry tools, quantity of fire wood.Ipswich Journal, September 1835**
