There is an evidence to suggest that Dick Turpin hid here in 1738, using his wife's maiden name Palmer, prior to his final flight to Yorkshire. The hotel has preserved the old look of the restaurant with the same old timbers and antique plates. A multitude of traditional dishes are served here\n\nExterior\nAlthough the core buildings date back from the early 1500's , the exact date is uncertain - the first record of the Roebuck is as a moderately large alehouse in 1691. The building today still contains original oak beams and low ceilings that give the place real character.\n\nLobby\nThe lobby is small yet welcoming and immediately illustrates the history of the property.
