Description: | The New Inn was a famous old public house once owned by Lion Breweries of Winchester. In those days parties of visitors came from far and wide to visit the pub and the ivy growing on its walls and inside the famous Ivy Room. This was one of six public houses that were once here. A few doors down from the New Inn is the Cormorant which dates from around 1815 and is the only public house of the six to survive.
The New Inn closed and became a private house before reopening as a tea room in the mid 1920's. It later had its ivy removed and is today part of a row of attractive Georgian style residences.
Several people are seen entering the shop opposite advertising Sunlight Soap.
