Ye Olde Dolphin Inne is a Grade II listed pub, on Queen Street, in the city of Derby, England.[1]
It is on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.[2]
It was built in the late 16th century, with the licence said to date from 1580, and is the oldest pub in Derby. The timber-framed exterior of the building was remodeled in the early 20th century.[1]
The 18th-century extension, on the left-hand side of the building in Full Street, was originally a doctor's house, wherein he dissected the bodies of criminals who had been hanged.[3][dead link]
The Offiler's Lounge is named after the Derby brewery of the same name, which ended production in 1966.[4][5]
