Sightseeing

Step into the 1870s at the award-winning Judge's Lodging and discover the world of a most unusual household. Explore the 'upstairs, downstairs' life of the Victorian Judges, their servants and felonious guests. Once called ‘the most commodious and elegant apartments for a judge in all England and Wales' (Lord Chief Justice Campbell, 1855), decay beckoned Radnorshire's disused Shire Hall into obscurity. Now, aided by an interior hardly touched by time and original furnishings discarded in attics, extensive research and restoration has re-awakened this ‘Victorian fossil'. From the stunningly restored judge's apartments to the dingy servants' quarters below you can explore their gaslit world. Damp cells remind you of the building's true purpose, along with the vast courtroom where your imagination in captured by the echoing trial of William Morgan, local duck thief. “One of the world’s most appealing small museums” – Dr John Davies, historian

We carry a wide selection of local draft ales and a small, carefully designed and eclectic wine list. Our menu of modern British and pub classics feature the best seasonal produce available at the time. We carry great pride in sourcing all our meat in the counties within the Marches.”
Drive time from Holly Gate +/- 44 minutes “A pub that’s like home from home but better, because there is a great cask of beers on tap and offering great food. Bursting with character, oak floors, a huge fireplace, and that special quality called ‘atmosphere’. Rated ‘excellent’ by TripAdvisor, October 2018
