The George Hotel at Dorchester

Dorchester-on-Thames, Oxfordshire
www.britainexpress.com/counties/oxfordshire/az/dorchester-on-thames.htm

Almost opposite from the abbey's timber-framed lych gate is The George, a galleried coaching inn dating to 1495. The George served coaches travelling on the main road linking London to Oxford and Gloucester, which became one of the first toll roads in England. At one time there were ten coaching inns, but now only the George and the nearby White Hart remain.

TV viewers will recognise Dorchester from its many appearances in the popular series 'Midsomer Murders'. The George Hotel has appeared in two episodes, the Fleur-de-Lys in one, but the most popular location for the series was the post office on High Street, which featured in three episodes - representing three distinct fictional villages.
