More about this scene

Daniel Defoe lived in a cottage that was once part of this fine old inn. It is said that he wrote 'Robinson?Crusoe' in a back-room above the wash-house. Henry Treadwell was one of several generations of yeoman farmers in the village, and was the landlord of the inn during the second half of the 19th century.
