Arriving at the village, he saw a crown hanging from a long pole projecting from the gable of the third house, and the Crown's innkeeper stood at the entrance.

When he arrived at the village, a long pole stuck out from the gable of the third house, a golden crown hang there, and the Crown's innkeeper stood before its front-door.

Vorschlag Bernard: Arriving at the village, he saw a crown hanging from a long pole projecting from the gable of the third house, and the Crown's innkeeper stood at the entrance.
If you write 'When he arrived at the village, a long pole stuck out' it sounds as though the pole sticks out in that moment when he arrives in the village.
