Westgate Road, William IV Inn

Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. Also known as the 'Halfway House' closed in 1972. The frequent use of William IVs name for licensed premises was due to his claim to be remembered as the monarch that lowered the tax on beer. In 1998 the building was in use as a shop- remodelled internally, the stonework of the old pub's door surrounds and the leaded lights above the central entrance clearly indicate the exterior of a familiar style of corner pub of the third quarter of the 19th century.
