Three Cups, Harwich

The Three Cups was a historic public house and hotel which played a prominent role in Harwich until it was converted to a private house in 1995.[1] The current building was built around 1500, but there are more speculative claims that a public house existed on the site before this.[1] The building is located at 64 Church Street, next to St Nicholas' church.[2]
