This pub has been run by Harveys of Lewes for well over 100 years and is the oldest pub in the town. The name has religious connotations and the building may once have been a stop for pilgrims. In the 19th century there was a large room here used for meetings and in 1852 a Dr Darling gave a lecture on "Spirit-Rapping, Table-Turning and Mesmerism" here. A violent storm occurred during the meeting and many people ran from the pub screaming.
