Welcome
From Friday 2nd March to Sunday 11th March, we are having a Pie and a Pint week. You can browse the menu on the 'Food Week' page on the left.
The Nevill Crest and Gun is an intriguingly named pub, in a building with over 500 years of history. The ‘Nevill Crest’ refers quite literally to the crest of the Nevill family, the Earls of Abergavenny, on whose estate the pub was built: it is their monogram that adorns the building and many others in the surrounding area.
The ‘Gun’ arose from a forge on the estate which produced cannons and cannon balls for the Nevilles: at one time an ancient canon, made of strips of metal held together with hoops, was fired on fair days or days of celebration, and it is this that is referred to in the name: after all, many of the local villagers would have been employed in the forge.
