The Tiger at Stowting December 2005.

 

The pub is over 250 years old and has changed its name on numerous occasions, finally settling on The Tiger Inn in 1980. previous to that it was referred to as the "Anchor."

It still has hitching posts for parking your equine mounts.

The origin of the name is not clear, but rumour has it that a tiger escaped from a visiting circus and was captured by the locals with a large tablecloth!
