Pub history
The writer George Orwell imagined his ideal pub and described it in a newspaper article. He called it ‘Moon Under Water’ – which is why several Wetherspoon pubs have that name. This one occupies 5–7a Market Place. Number 5 is a former a bank which opened in 1890 and closed in 1957. It then became a shoe shop. Number 7 was built in the 1960s on the site of the long-standing Cross Keys Hotel.
