The Prince of Wales, on the corner of Crafton Street and Wharf Street is a mid Victorian building owned by the Vann family, who also brewed here in the latter part of the 19th century.
It became a Bass House, and survived as such until circa 1995 when Centric Inns took over to be followed by Gibbs Mew in 1998. Underwent further changes and became run down (as did the area), in 2006-2007 changing its name altogether to Barocco.
