The King's Head Hotel The earliest recorded reference to this Wetherspoon free house is a lease granted to George Cocke dated 1668. This Grade II listed building is described as "17th and 18th centuries, with alterations". The 18th century, Georgian style parts flank the earlier section of the building. The King's Head was a coaching inn, and until fairly recently, the main entrance facing New Market was an open archway, leading to a cobbled yard with galleries at the back and stables to the rear. These premises were refurbished and reopened by J.D. Whetherspoon in February 2013.
