The Old King's Arms, Grade II listed pub in St Albans, England.
The Old King's Arms is a pub in central St Albans featuring timber-framed construction across two stories, with the upper floor supported by diagonal wooden braces that create distinctive structural lines. The building displays a high-pitched tiled roof and maintains the characteristic form of a medieval English public house.
The structure was built in the 15th century and represents typical medieval building methods of its time. It received Grade II Listed status from Historic England in 1971, recognizing its architectural and historical value.
This place has served as a gathering point in St Albans' town center for many generations, embodying the English pub tradition where people meet to socialize and share time together. The interior preserves the character of a long-standing local meeting space where both residents and visitors naturally congregate.
This pub is located on George Street in central St Albans with convenient access to public transportation nearby. The surrounding area offers multiple walking routes that connect to other historic sites throughout the town.
Late Victorian modifications added small-paned windows and decorative glazed tiles around the door frames that contrast with the medieval timber structure beneath. These changes show how the building adapted to different periods while preserving its core medieval framework.
