- The Crown Inn
-
- Situated in the very heart of
the picturesque county town of Lewes, The Crown Inn offers comfortable
B&B accommodation at reasonable rates.
-
- The earliest mention of the Inn
was as The Black Lyon in 1675 when Henry Townsend was the landlord,
changing to The Crown in 1790 under the care of Joseph Spittle.
-
- We believe we are the oldest continuously
trading Inn in Lewes.
-
- The Inn is the headquarters of
one of Lewes' famous bonfire societies, Waterloo, who prepare
year-round for the magnificent Lewesian celebrations of November
5th.
