More about this scene
One of the oldest pubs in this corner of Hampshire, the Feathers is a sturdy, oak-beamed building dating back to the 14th century. Cromwell is said to have stayed here, and Canadian officers based locally used it as their mess during the Second World War. Look closely at the sign over the door - it lists Courage, Alton Ales and London Stout.
