Full Description

{1} In 1405 there was one tavern, with a chamber above, fronting onto the market place on the east side and a tavern is again mentioned in 1620. This is potentially significant because taverns were establishments which sold wine as well as beer and from the mid 16th century these were limited to one in any settlement, with specific exceptions of which none lay in Northamptonshire.
