Overview

The Falcon Inn is a historic public house in Arncliffe, North Yorkshire, in England. The pub was built in the 18th century, and its windows were altered in the early or mid 19th century. It was altered internally in the 1950s, when the back corridor and smoke room were merged, and a bar counter introduced, with the kitchen ceasing to act as a public room. A rear extension was added, to cater to hikers, which was rebuilt in 1975. It was Grade II listed in 1958. It has been owned by the Miller family since 1874, and is unusual in serving beer directly from a jug. The stone building has quoins and a stone slate roof. There are two storeys and three bays. The doorway has a fanlight, and a cornice on console brackets. This is flanked by canted bay windows, and the windows in the upper floor are sashes, paired on the left side.
