Timber framed and plastered with tiled roof. Listing NGR : TM1189479618 Whites directory of 1836 records that in 1725 William Pettit, via rent charges, left 10s a year to the Poor. According to Whites
directories of 1845 & 1854.... To date no other
reference to the Unicorn has been discovered in directories or census
returns. It would appear that it ceased operating as a public house before
