Lord Crewe Arms


The Lord Crew Arms is a hotel, resturant and bar, located on The Sqaure in Blanchland. The building incorporates what was the west cloister range of the Abbey here (probably the Abbot's lodge, guest house and kitchen). The building dates from the 13th and 15th centuries, and was remodelled in the mid 18th century. After the Dissolution, the range became the house of the Forster family. Thomas Forster, awaiting trial at Newgate for his part in the 1715 rebellion, escaped with the aid of his sister Dorothy and is reputed to have hidden for a time in the "priest's hole", before going into exile in France.[1] The building is Grade II* listed on the National Heritage List for England.
