Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Sir Roger Tichborne, Alfold Bars. Just south of Alfold, set back from the B2133, is this public house known as Sir Roger Tichborne. It has been a public house since 1873, but was closed for several years, but in April 2009 it re-opened, with the addition of a restaurant. It appears to have gone somewhat upmarket from its previous life, judging by Andy Potter's 2006 photograph, taken when it was closed:- 243629. The vegetation smothering the building has gone and the car park has been remade and much improved. The single storey building on the right has either been replaced or restored to provide the restaurant.
The pub is named after a Victorian gentleman who was lost at sea. His mother and other people refused to accept that he had died and when a man claiming to be him emerged, they accepted him as the missing Sir Roger Tichborne. This led to a famous Victorian court case. It all ended in tears with the imposter imprisoned and a few years after his release he died in poverty.
