Welcome to The Anchor Thundridge
Menu on a two for one pricing (bogof).
The Anchor is yet another ancient building, probably late 16th century.
Nothing is recorded of it being an Inn until 1765, when it was listed in a billeting return as having stabling for one horse.
In 1834 the owner, William Pratchett of Hertford (a maltster), mortgaged it to a John Phillips, a brewer from Royston, who foreclosed two years later.
Incidentally, the name 'Anchor' has no connection with boats! -- an 'anker' was an ancient measure of liquor which contained about eight Imperial gallons.
This picture shows that there was a rather large addition made to the south side of original at some time!
Recently taken over by new owners 'Marstons' and has been through a major refurbishment program.
