The Crown Inn public house, comprising a two-storey building (at the corner of Finkle Street) and an adjoining three-storey property, with a yard at the rear, has long been a fixture on Knaresborough's main street. A 1950 sketch shows that each building had a ground floor shop. The one nearest Finkle Street was once a hairdresser's, while the other was a confectioner's. In the early 20th century, the two-storey building was rebuilt. During the 19th century, The Crown Inn was one of the town's three principal inns and also a posting house. These premises were refurbished by J D Wetherspoon and reopened in March 2014
