Kings Arms, Smithy Door

Smith Door was where the old original Shambles Square used to be. Here the Kings Arms pub used to put on shows such as one which exhibited trained animals - it included a pig that could tell the time by a watch, country dancing by six turkeys, and three cats which sung in Italian (!?) [1].
