The Brasenose Arms is a 17th century Country Inn, situated in the heart of Cropredy, a rural village just 4 miles north of Banbury, Oxfordshire. Originally three cottages, it was converted into a Public House in the late 17th century. Over 350 years ago, Cropredy Bridge was the site of a major battle during the English Civil War in 1644. Today, it hosts Britain's (if not Europe's) 'friendliest' mu

sic festival - Fairport's Cropredy Convention - staged every year in August by members of the great British folk band - Fairport Convention. Here they are, sitting outside the pub, for the photo on the back of their 1973 album 'Nine'.
