It was rebuilt in 1611 and converted to its current usage in 1843. It is claimed to be the oldest building which is now a pub with a beer garden in Southampton, Hampshire.[2][3] It is situated adjacent to the Mount Pleasant level crossing on the South Western main line. HistoryThe farmhouse, shown on the 1560 map of Southampton, was rebuilt in 1611, a date depicted in white bricks on the south wall, by an unknown person referred to in the surviving records as E.R.[2][3] Panton's Wareham Brewery took out a 1000-year lease on the property and opened a beer house here with Mrs. Annette Eddy listed as landlady in 1852. Scrase's Star Brewery took over the lease in 1892 followed later by Strong's Romsey Brewery.[2] Local LegendsThe pub is reportedly haunted by the ghost of the daughter of an Irish family who got pregnant out-of-wedlock while living here. Former Landlord Barrie Short (now deceased) stated that although he didn't believe in the legend he had noticed that for a couple of days after he goes into the attic the jukebox will start playing strange music and the television will switch channels by itself. A skull, alleged to have been that of the girl, was unearthed in the cellar and used to be displayed behind the bar.[3] Other unconfirmed local legends state that Oliver Cromwell stayed at the farmhouse on one or two occasions and that smugglers' tunnels run from the fireplace to the nearby River Itchen.[2][3] References1. ^{{cite web|title=THE OLD FARM HOUSE PUBLIC HOUSE|url=https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1302207|website=Historic England|accessdate=16 January 2018}} {{Buildings in Southampton}}{{Hampshire-struct-stub}}{{UK-listed-building-stub}}{{pub-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.southampton-pubs.co.uk/oldfarmhouse/|title=The Old Farmhouse|publisher=Southampton Pubs|accessdate=2014-11-20}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last1=Legg|first1=Penny|title=Haunted Southampton|date=2011|publisher=The History Press|location=|isbn=9780752455198|page=}} 4 : Grade II* listed buildings in Hampshire|Grade II* listed pubs in England|Pubs in Southampton|Reportedly haunted locations in South East England |
