One part of our house is over 400 years old. It used to be a pub called "The Case is Altered." It has a very interesting cellar which still contains the carved stone trough that used to be used for salting pigs. I love the way that the steps have worn and often wonder about the people who must have used them over the years.
When I visited the UK for the first time 6 years ago, I stayed in my Uncle's pub which had been standing since the 1700s. It just blew my mind that folk had been drinking there longer than Australia had been recognised as a land mass. I had to bob down in a couple of doorways as they were so low.
WOW! jan you must give me a history lesson about your house, I hadn't realised your house was a pub too. The village seems to of had more pubs than houses!!
