The Crown was situated on Gangsdown Hill.

Despite being on a main road, near a prestigious golf club and a National Trust property and on the Ridgeway national trail, the Crown has closed after several off-on periods over the past 10 or more years.

We moved into the area in 1985 and soon discovered the Crown pub at Nuffield as a friendly and cosy place – more of a small restaurant than a pub as it was so small. It was run at that time by a delightful couple who had built their own 3 wheeler kit car (blue as I recall). When they left, it had a series of staff who never really captured the essence of this local. It would be great to see it open again but with COVID-19 2 metre restrictions, I would guess it could fit only 6 tables inside.
