Informations supplémentaires:
The Stag Inn public house is in the Old Town area of Hastings, a port and seaside resort in East Sussex, England. One of many ancient buildings on All Saints Street, the 16th-century timber-framed inn was re-fronted in the 18th century, but many of its original features remain. The preserved bodies of two smoke-blackened mummified cats found in a chimney, were displayed on a wall since their discovery in the 19th century (but now, due to their fragile state, are preserved in glass cases). Witchcraft has been suggested as an explanation for the mummified cats.The inn, which claims to be Hastings' oldest surviving pub, is operated as a tied house by the Shepherd Neame Brewery, and has been listed at Grade II by English Heritage for its architectural and historical importance. Serves good food.
