Owner/operator: Adnams
Clean and tidy pub, built in 1960 and one of the more characterful examples of the period's architecture. The beer is well kept and the welcome always genuinely warm. No food Sun.

The pub's license was transferred from the closing Aldeburgh Cross.
Although this pub building was only opened in 1959, there was an earlier pub of the same name somewhere nearby (possibly on the same site?) which was listed in the 1910 Lowestoft Rate book as being somewhere between 24 and 56 Park Rd. This earlier pub evidently goes back some time; Park St is shown on the 1884 Town Plan as Albert St (though the pub isn't marked).…
