Nags Head Pub - Shrewsbury, Shropshire, UK. - Pubs and Inns on Waymarking.com

A small old attractive building, serving hand pumped beer pub, in two rooms & a large rear garden. A great place for a Pint on your way up the steep hill from the River towards the Town Center.

"Situated on the historic Wyle Cop, the main features of this Grade II Listed timber framed building are best appreciated externally. There's the upper storey jettying, and to the rear, the timber remnants of a 14th-century hall house including a screened passage. This provided protection from draughts and nowadays, shelter for smokers!. And for a town centre pub, the garden is remarkably large. The old style interior has remained unaltered for many years. The pub can be very busy at times attracting a mixed clientele. But beware, it has the reputation of being haunted and is featured in the Shrewsbury Ghost Trail." Text Source; (visit link)

Since then, there have been reports of heavy breathing, with several people have seen a man in a long cloak or shroud appearing through a wall. Poltergeists have been active with loud poundings in the night. Three people have committed suicide at the Nag’s Head in the past, with are the ghosts that haunt the building. They have been recorded as a coachman who hanged himself; a woman who threw herself out of one of the windows; and a soldier on leave who shot himself. There is also the portrait of a strange person painted on the inside of a pub cupboard. This portra Reports claim it to metamorphose into one of the ghosts to haunt the Nag’s Head late at night. The inn has history over five hundred years, with prior to that had been a church. There is a jetted, medieval, half-timbered building at the rear of this pub. It has a history from 1420.
