[MR] Wikipedia: 15th c. Mermaid Inn

[Garth Groff]

Noble friends,

Lonely now that everyone else has gone to Pennsic? Consider the heat 
they must endure! As you sit comfortably in your nice air-conditioned 
manor house, enjoy this web site: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mermaid_Inn .

The Mermaid Inn in Rye, England, dates from about 1420, though the 
cellars go back to the 12th century. Much of the original building 
survives, though there are major 16th and 18th century additions. Too 
bad the secret passages have all been removed, and the same for the 
smugglers' tunnel to the nearby Bell Inn (1390).

Stay cool. Pennsic isn't everything, you know.

Kind regards,
