Rebuilt at current location at some time between 1871 & 1881.
The CRAWFISH and Crawfish Cottage are given 1881.

The original Crawfish was a coaching inn and stood near to what became Thursford railway station. The new house was built to cater for the railway clientele, although the new site was half mile distant from the station.

The `Old Crawfish' still stands some distance South West of the present Crawfish P.H. - on the opposite side of the road.

The house includes a Thai Restaurant in 2001
