Originally called the "Hogshead," but I don't yet know when the name changed.

Now owned and run by Wetherspoon's who says about the premises:- "Numbers 47 and 49 High Street were originally two long-standing shops – part of a parade built in late Victorian times. From c1900 until World War II, no.47 was Eastman’s drying and cleaning business. For many years, no.49 was occupied by a succession of high-class tailors. It was here that a tailor’s chalk was used to mark seams, showing where fabric needed to be cut or garments altered."
