A Distinguished Hotel.

A hotel at Henley y-in-Arden, which is
about TO be sold by auction, has the unique
distinction of having been visited during
the last 250 years by nearly every English
monarch that has reigned. In the days
OF King Charles l and the Prince Regent
it was one of the most noted places in the
Midlands. Shenstone added to its fame
by writing on pane in one of its windows
his well-known verses on the delight of an
inn and the "warmest welcome" to be
found there.
