The Olive Branch Inn was situated at 3 St Leonard's Street. This pub is now in commercial use. There is a panel on the east face of the chimney inscribed '1666', which is presumably the construction date. The house has an ashlar stone front and timber framed rear wall. The front has a three storey bay window with mullions. The interior includes a 17th century bolection-moulded fireplace on the first floor. There is a long stone range to the rear which was probably added in 1749 and this date is inscribed on a panel on the east wall, along with the intials HWE for Henry Wright who bought the property in 1740. He also built four cottages in the yard although these are now in ruins.
