In the light of the government announcement of March 20th, all pubs are now closed until further notice.

Some of them may well still be offering a takeaway beer service and some others will also be selling food takeaways, perhaps even with delivery. If you can give any of our pubs some support through these terrible times by buying some takeaway food or drink, please do so. Our pubs need as much support of possible if they're going to still be there for us when the crisis is over.

Yarmouth Rd, IP12 1QB

grid reference TM 283 506

Now residential and called Thomas Churchyard House, this was a coaching inn in middle of the village.

The building dates from the 18th century, with a 19th century façade.

Years of neglect saw both the kitchen and the letting rooms fall below standard. In the pub's last two years a succession of tenants came and went. No purchasers came forward, so the doors closed for the last time in December 2009.

The pub is shown on this old OS map from about the end of the 19th century. larger map
