The Three Tuns

Last updated January 23, 2023

The Three Tuns is a pub on Coppergate, in the city centre of York, in England.

The building was probably constructed in the 16th century and is timber-framed, with the first floor jettied. It was heavily altered in the 19th century, since when it has been a two-storey building with an attic, and the windows date from this period. At the north-east end, there is a lean-to bay, and there is a large 20th-century extension to the rear. The rear extension includes an eight-foot stone wall, which may be Mediaeval.^[1]^[2]

The building is recorded as having been a pub from at least 1782. It was owned by Maltby & Wilberforce from 1861 and specialised in selling wines and spirits. It later became owned by the Courage Brewery and was sold to the Mansfield Brewery in 1991. In 1970, a cache of silver coins was discovered, and a cache of gold coins was also discovered during renovations on the customer service area.^[3] The building was Grade II listed in 1954.^[1]
