 The Royal Standard of England is a pub in Forty Green.It is reputedly the Oldest Freehouse in England, dating as far back as 1100.Known as The Ship from 1213 to 1663, it adopted its current name when the restored monarch Charles II allowed the name change as a reward for offering the supporters of his father, Charles I, a safe haven during the English Civil War; hence the name of one of the rooms within the establishment, the Lower King Charles room.
