EM Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 The tabloids seem to be enjoying the idea of Britain's oldest pub being at Jarlshof: http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/editors-choice/2011/09/05/could-this-be-the-oldest-pub-in-scotland-86908-23397913/ No evidence whatsoever for it being a pub type boozer, but boozing is certainly being claimed. It will be interesting to hear what Val has to say about the article's tone and veracity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
