The Old Castle was situated at 37 High Street. The premises were famous for the coffin of a former owner, Henry Trigg grocer, whose coffin was kept in the loft of the barn, in accordance with his will. The building later became the Old Castle, closing in 1995. When NatWest bought the Grade II Listed building two years later, Henry was buried but the coffin stayed where it was. Since 2017, it’s been a dental surgeon’s.
