New Inn, Easingwold

Public house in Easingwold, Yorkshire, England

The pub, in 2022

The New Inn is a public house in Easingwold, a town in North Yorkshire, in England.

The pub was built in the mid 18th century,[1] on Long Street in Easingwold. It was one of two coaching inns in the town, the other being the Rose and Crown. Most stagecoaches stopped at the inn, while the Royal Mail and Highflyer coaches changed horses there. About eight post horses were kept in stables at the rear of the inn. The doors and windows of the inn were altered in the 19th century, and there were further changes in the 20th century.[2] The building was grade II listed in 1984.[1] By 2014, the business operated as a pub, with a restaurant area, central bar and lounge area.[3] In 2019, it was part of the small West Park Inns group.[4]

The pub is built of red-brown brick, colourwashed on the front, with floor bands and pantile roofs. The main block has three storeys and three bays. In the centre is a doorway with pilasters, an oblong fanlight and an open pediment. To its left is a canted bay window, and the other windows are sashes. To the left is a two-storey three-bay wing containing a segmental-headed carriage entrance. On the right are two two-storey single-bay extensions, containing a canted bay window and a doorway with an oblong fanlight.[1][5]
