I FIND this hard to believe, but the bar at The Revere Hotel on the Channel Island of Jersey is supposedly made with wreckage from the Spanish Armada.

Spanish practices?

That would make it 431 years old - not impossible, but highly unlikely, to say the least.
I popped into The Revere as I am staying further along Kensington Place, St Helier, at its cheaper sister hotel, the Stafford.
The bar, whatever its age, has character, and would normally be a tempting place to drink, but I am on a course of antibiotics, so anything alcoholic is off-limits.
