The public house The Angels Reply, on Bedford
Road, Hitchin, had a grand makeover in 2014, and became known as The Angels.

The Angels Reply was built as a replacement for The Angel
Vaults, a pub that stood in Sun Street (number 3) (formally Angel Street) until it was demolished in July
1956. The date 1450 was embossed on the façade
of the old inn, but it was most certainly older.

When McMullens built The Angels Reply, they installed the
old mirror which had been a feature in the bar of the Angel Vaults.

The Angels is built on the site of Nutleigh Grove House
which was a building of considerable age.
