Yorkshire Grey, Cambridge

Picture Source: Mike Pittock


The Yorkshire Grey was situated at 245-247 High Street, Chesterton. This pub opened in 1936 and closed in 1999.
 

 
From Cambridgeshire Heritage:
Evaluation revealed the remains of a post-medieval clunch-built cellar or foundation.
Phase V (14th to 17th centuries) in Area A (closest to Chesterton High Street) consisted almost entirely of a backfilled cellar, although no evidence remained of the building that had originally sat above it. The backfilling of the cellar can be firmly dated to the early 18th century. The deposits sitting above and to the west of the cellar were 18th and 19th century in date, and associated with the building of the Butchers Arms Public House.
