1 Oddfellows Arms public house, Mansell street, Stratford upon Avon Historic public house recorded on F White & Co.'s database which shows it in existence in 1874. Situated on Mansell street on the corner with Windsor street in the medieval area of the town.
2 The building is also shown on the Board of Health map of 1851.
3 A building appears to occupy the same footprint on Winter-map of 1759. The windows and other building features look 18th/19th century in date but of course it could hide a timber-framed core.

Description  
period Modern The Modern Period, about 1915 AD to the present (the 20th and 21st centuries AD)

In recent years archaeologists have realised the importance of recording modern sites. They do this so that in the future people will be able to look at the remains to help them understand the events to which they are related.

period Medieval 1066 AD to 1539 AD (the 11th century AD to the 16th century AD)

The medieval period comes after the Saxon period and before the post medieval period.

The Medieval period begins in 1066 AD.
This was the year that the Normans, led by William the Conqueror (1066 – 1087), invaded England and defeated Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings in East Sussex.
The Medieval period includes the first half of the Tudor period (1485 – 1603 AD), when the Tudor family reigned in England and eventually in Scotland too.

The end of the Medieval period is marked by Henry VIII’s (1509 – 1547) order for the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the years running up to 1539 AD. The whole of this period is sometimes called the Middle Ages.
