The last time I was there I was amazed by how posh it hads become. Relatively speaking, of course. That was probably 17 years ago, though.
I recommend a visit to The Arch Bar on Upper William St, which probably still has the big mural of the Armalite on its front wall. They'll serve you a grand soft pint, though.

Oh dear, drawn, quartered and beheaded. Sounds like a rum business, the imperialist *******s! :-(
There's a Cromwell House and an Ireton house in Highgate with no real connection to either of them, other than Henry's brother John owned Lauderdale House over the road for a while.
