The Boot pub looks like it's made up of two separate buildings that were joined together. This old building was constructed around the year 1500, which makes it over 500 years old! Because it's so old and important, it is a "Grade II listed" building with Historic England. This means it's officially recognized as a special historical place that needs to be protected. Historic England has even described its roof as a "jumble of roofs," showing how unique its design is.
