Historical Legacy

Our Story

Mentmore and The Stag are steeped in history. Baron Mayer de Rothschild built The Stag in the mid-1840s, and since then, it has had many landlord changes, culminating in the pub being acquired by the local community and reopening in June 2021. We hope you find our story interesting…
