The Carpenters public house, High Street

The green notice on the wall states:
THE CARPENTERS ARMS.
Without fear of contradiction, The Carpenters Arms is the oldest public house in Newport. It was originally built in 1403, as a meeting place for and by the tradesmen of whom it is named after. In addition to storing a fine stock of natural ale, the cellars also housed those who broke the law. Short term prisoners would serve their sentences here, while more serious offenders would be taken to the county gaol at Monmouth.
