The George was situated at 12-14 High Street. This pub started trading in 1463 until 1871. After that the building was partially demolished. The remnants were converted into two adjoining houses. These grade-II listed houses at some point were changed to retail. Currently one is closed, the other is an art gallery specialising in medieval art.
