Extremely popular 17th century inn on the site of an ale house, known to have existed in 1216. King William III is said to have ridden his horse up the outside stairs to show contempt for the Jacobites who met here. Today, a passage leads from Westgate Street into a courtyard that is ablaze with flowers in the summer. A large door opens into the Cathedral bar with panelled ceiling and carved stone fireplace. The modernised Orange Room serves as an overflow area or a room for private functions. The inn regularly plays host to local Morris Dancers and live music.
