Description

HEMPSTEAD HIGH STREET 1. 5222 (north-west side) Rose and Crown Inn TL 6338 33/391

II GV

  1. C17 timber-framed and plastered building on an L shaped plan with a gabled wing at the south-west end. This inn is associated with the notorious C18 highwayman Dick Turpin who was born in the village when his father was proprietor of the inn. The inn contains copies of the parish register recording Dick Turpin's baptism. It was a letter addressed to the Rose and Crown when he was arrested in York under an assumed name which led to his conviction and execution in 1739. The inn was considerably altered in the C18 and later. Two storeys. Three window range, double-hung sashes with glazing bars. The ground storey has 3-light windows with narrow side lights. The roof of the main block is slate, with a central square chimney stack and the roof of the north-west wing is tiled. The interior has exposed ceiling beams. (RCHM 9).
