Description
The King William IV is a public house located on Station Road in Brompton-on-Swale, dating back to around 1728. The building is rendered with a Welsh slate roof and consists of two storeys, featuring three first-floor windows. Between the second and third windows, there is a leaved board door set within a quoined ashlar surround, topped with a tripartite keystone. The ground-floor windows are late 19th to early 20th century square bays, while the first-floor windows include two sashes with glazing bars and a four-pane sash. Brick stacks are located at each end of the building. Inside, the pub has simple stop-chamfered beams. Notably, it features a "Ringing the Bull" game in the bar, one of only four known examples in the country. The building's deeds date back to 1728, aligning with its architectural style. The pub has undergone several name changes over the years, originally known as The Oddfellows in the early 19th century, then the King's Head, and finally the King William IV.
