> Nottingham’s Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem is a timber-framed building dating to the 17th century, and was not open for business until the late-18th century From what I understand the claim about Ye Olde Trip relates more to the caves that form part of the structure and the part they may have played as a gathering point for crusaders heading south, with claims that there was a tavern of some sort on the site, than the existing front of the building. However they certainly like to imply some sort of continuity of trade so it's interesting to find out different. Regardless of the veracity of the claims, it's well worth a look at a quiet time, because there aren't that many pubs where the back rooms are literally caves in the bedrock!
