 58 Friday Street,  The Anchor Inn, located on the south side of Friday Street, formerly in the parish of Rotherfield Greys and shown on its 1844 Tithe Map. There it is described as two houses, showing an L-shaped foot print on a substantial plot with large outbuildings at the back. Behind its Victorian façade remains a timber framed house of a lobby entry plan with central stack, heavy square laid joists and transverse beams, all chamfered. It was known as the  Brewery Tap (probably for Greys Brewery) and first mentioned as the The Anchor in 1847 ( see A.Cottingham ‘The Hostelries of Henley’)
