The Castle of Comfort, which is a
Grade 2 listed building, is believed to date from the 16th
century or even earlier. It was a Coaching Inn during the
17th century after which it became a coffee house and then a
cider house when copper mining took place in the area.
Miners collected their wages from the Counting House
just to the east and came down to the Castle of Comfort for
refreshment. |
