OVERVIEW

Kings Newmarket is a magnificent Grade II listed building with a long and colourful history dating back to the 17th Century.

Originally occupying the site of the 'Griffin Inn', Kings Newmarket was purchased by
King James I as his racing palace. King Charles I later rebuilt the palace at great expense
with the finest cut stone much of which still stands today.

Historical documents also tell of a meeting in the garden between Charles I and Oliver Cromwell. Charles refused to sign Cromwell's 'puppet king' bill resulting in the break out of the English Civil War soon after.

Over the years Kings Newmarket has seen service as a coach house, a courthouse, a logistics headquaters for the military and more recently a gentleman's club.

After almost five years of closure Kings has reopened under new management. Sympathetically refurbished, Kings is once again enjoying a new lease of life.
