The Tumbledown Dick was a former public house in Farnborough, Hampshire, England, that operated from the 16th century[1] until the early 21st century. The name of the pub originates as the satirical nickname given to Richard Cromwell, son of Oliver Cromwell, after his abrupt fall from power after a brief nine-month reign in 1658–59.[2] The pub was the central focus of Farnborough before its 19th-century refocus toward North Camp and the current town centre's 20th-century development. Local folklore links the pub with various historical figures, including Cromwell, Henry VII (celebrating the downfall of Richard III) and Dick Turpin.[3] The pub was closed in 2008, and the building was purchased by McDonald's in 2012.[4]
