Lord Charles Somerset and '40 horses' reached Dixton Gate without opposition. The Guard of six men fled. They then broke the chain of the Dixton Gate with a crowbar and the forces of Lord Charles Somerset entered the town. The action itself saw several members of the Parliamentary Committee for South Wales captured along with 200 officers and men. Arms and ammunition were also taken including some hammer guns.[5] The other tower and rest of the Dixon Gate were removed in 1770 because they were hindering the passage of coaches.[6] PressThe Lonely Planet guide describes the Old Nag's Head as "an old-fashioned, no-frills, neighbourhood pub with friendly staff and a selection of real ales on tap".[7] References1. ^The Buildings of Wales: gwent/Monmouthshire, page 408 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gatehouse-gazetteer.info/Welshsites/581.html |title=Monmouth Town Walls and Defences |work=The Gatehouse Record |publisher=Gatehouse Gazetteer |date=2011-12-03 |accessdate=2012-01-28}} 3. ^{{cite web|author=Good Stuff IT Services |url=http://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-2312-the-old-nag-s-head-p-h-monmouth |title=The Old Nag's Head PH |publisher=British Listed Buildings |date=1955-04-26 |accessdate=2012-01-26}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.coflein.gov.uk/en/site/410975/details/THE+OLD+NAG%27S+HEAD+PUBLIC+HOUSE/ |title=The Old Nag's Head Public House - Site Details |publisher=Coflein |date=2010-05-25 |accessdate=2012-01-28}} 5. ^Jeremy Knight, Civil War & Restoration in Monmouthshire, Logaston Press, 2005, {{ISBN|1-904396-41-0}}, page 81 6. ^{{cite book|last=Kissack|first=Keith|title=Mediaeval Monmouth| publisher = The Monmouth Historical and Educational Trust|year= 1974| page=36}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.lonelyplanet.com/wales/south-wales/monmouth-trefynwy/entertainment-nightlife/music/old-nag-head |title=Old Nag's Head in Monmouth (Trefynwy), Wales |publisher=Lonely Planet |date= |accessdate=2012-01-26}}
