Llanfihangel Tor-y-Mynydd - Star Inn

Star Inn

The Star Inn has been in existence since at least the 15th century, and was an important staging post on the road leading from Chepstow towards Usk and Raglan. It was visited in 1748 by the preacher John Wesley, who described it as "a good though small inn". It remains a popular inn and restaurant. The long hill between Llansoy and Devauden is known as Star Hill.

Famous quotes containing the words star and/or inn:

    You’re not a star until they can spell your name in Karachi.
    Humphrey Bogart (1899–1957)

    The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.
    Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
