The Anchor Inn / Blue Anchor. This inn existed on the south side of East Street, between Woodland Road and St Lawrence Lane, at the time of the 1851 census. Inn did not appear in any subsequent trade directories. Piggot's Directories of 1823 and 1830 refer to the Blue Anchor in East Street. Appears to have been at this site (next to the printers; see photograph), as the Anchor Café was there, with Mrs B. M. Adams as proprietor throughout the 1930s.
