Freddie Mercury frequented this pub in the 70s and 80s.
The pub is still open for business today, in the basement section hangs a photo of Elton John, Jamaican musician Peter Straker and Freddie Mercury, taken in the pub itself.

It's widely believed that the lyrics for the track "Ware the Champions" were written by Freddie in this pub, though there is no source that can confirm it fully, what we do know is that the pub was one of Freddie's regular fixtures.
