The New Inn is a quintessentially old fashioned British freehold pub nestling in the Cornish Village of Manaccan and its greater community of Gillan, Flushing & Helford, is beloved of locals and returning visitors of many years alike.
The ancient history of the New Inn has yet to be fully researched. About five hundred years ago the licencing laws were changed and the pubs that took on the new legislation were called “New Inn”. Whether our pub dates back that far, and if it does, whether it complied with that legislation has not been ascertained. It is certainly possible but as anyone can see, the current building has additions that post date the original. It was at some stage two dwellings, hence the inglenook fireplace in the middle room that was exposed in the recent renovations.
