The Goat
The Goat was a tavern at Smithfield, in operation from the mid fourteenth to late sixteenth centuries (Keene and Harding 85-96), after which it changed hands as a residence. It was commonly known as the Goat on the Hoop, a name that referred to the hoop in which the Goat’s sign would have hung (Harben).
