The Building it's self dates back to 14th century as a grain store for the mill that was next door. The view from the windows was slightly different then it is today, the moor ( aptly named) is reclaimed land where the river came right up to where Asha indian restaurant is now. It is now a Grade II listed building and on the CAMRA National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. The interior is smoke
stained, the bar hasn’t been decorated since the 1950s. The Seven Stars was granted its licence in 1660, a year before Falmouth was given its Royal Charter and the licensee at the time was one Henry Penial and his Spouse Mary-Jane. It has seen many changes around Falmouth and has also encountered many characters, from salty old sea dogs to Royalty. Many of the characters worked on the water or for the water, on working boats or down in the shipyard. All of them had fascinating stories to tell. The pub has 7 generations of the same family dating from 1873, from more recent times the most famous Landlord Rev John Barrington Bennetts serving his time for nearly 60years behind the bar and serving his congregation at The Parish Church, before his passing back in 2011. There are quirky points to the pub, the coffin hatch being one of them, which you can find in the back saloon bar. The ladies is also a talking point.... if your a lady reading this you will understand :)
An amazing collection of Key Rings can be found in the bar which started its vast collection back in 1953. We still find ourselves being handed key rings from eager customers.
