4. Cock & Magpie, Old Whittington, Chesterfield
The historic part of the pub is made up of three pitched dwellings joined together. A modern 1-storey side extension has been added. There is a historic ancillary building with archway for access into the pub’s car park (likely to have been former stables). The pub was constructed in the 1790s on the site of the former Cock & Pynot alehouse. The latter included the existing grade II listed Revolution House to the south of the Cock & Magpie, the scene of the famous meeting in 1688 which sparked the Glorious Revolution. Photo: Google
