Local record

History of this pub

Rackstraws Farm took its name from the old farmhouse at 221 Yorktown Road, a Grade II listed building dating from the late 16th century. Historic England's listing describes a timber frame mostly encased in red brick, an old tiled roof and, inside, a large inglenook fireplace and chamfered beams, with alterations in the 18th century and extensions in the mid-20th century when it became a restaurant. It stood at the junction of the A321 Yorktown Road and the A3095 from Bracknell, with a Premier Inn alongside.
