The History of The George<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The George Hotel takes its name from St George and in the 19th century the hotel\u2019s sign depicted St George and the Dragon. The earliest reference to The George is made by George Farquhar, the famous dramatist, who stayed there in 1707 whilst quartered as a recruitment officer. It was here in fact that he wrote his plays, \u201cThe Recruiting Officer\u201d and \u201cThe Beaux Stratagem\u201d; the latter of these was actually written about life at The George itself and characters were based on the family who ran the inn at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
