Spread Eagle Hotel, Midhurst, West Sussex

Parts of the Spread Eagle Hotel in Midhurst, West Sussex, date to 1430. Elizabeth I is supposed to have stayed at the Spread Eagle, her stay commemorated in the name of the Queen's Room above the lounge.

Historical novelist Anya Seton used the Spread Eagle as a setting in her story The Green Darkness. In this story a young American woman relives a former life as a barmaid at an English sixteenth century inn.

The Spread Eagle continues as a working hotel. It combines it's history with modern facilities.
