Location Northamptonshire A conservation village 4 miles from Wellingborough (population 75,000). Finedon is a well served village (estimated 4,500 population). The Inn is set in the heart of the conservation area and is the last remaining Inn within the village.
History With origins in the area recorded in 1042 as Tingdene Hostelrie, a monastic hospice for travellers within the royal manor of Queen Edith. The current Listed main Inn was built in 1598, stone farm barns within the site suggest farm use, and in 1872 the Mackworth – Dolben family carried out a Victorian Gothic adaptation of the main façade.
The Property The Inn is a unique building which has been well kept and has considerable scope for expansion. The interior is exceptional and unspoilt. As well as the large floor area to the Inn, there is extensive residential accommodation, and consent on the outbuildings for partially completed en suite bedrooms served by a large car park to the rear. The property sits in an area of around 0.52 acres. Street frontage - 120 feet.
