Cross Daggers

The Cross Daggers is a restaurant and former pub in Woodhouse, Sheffield, England.[1]

The lintel above the door is inscribed "NTG 1658" with the N reversed; the initials may have stood for Thomas Godfrey Newbould, a prominent Quaker and landlord. The building overlooks the village stocks as well as the cross. Although it has mostly been used as a pub, in more recent years it has been used to house various restaurants.[2][3][4]

It is one of 362 listed buildings in South Yorkshire.[5] It is Grade II listed,[2] the lowest and most common listing.[6]
