The Vine

 


The Vine was situated on Church Street. This pub closed in 1911 and was the oldest still operating in the 20th century. It was a Boddington house and founded in 1369. It had steep steps from the front door and if a local policeman wanted a quick and easy booking, all he had to do was to stand there a few minutes, though some imbibers did (in the language of 1911) 'offer the constable a fight'. It was being used as a chip shop at time of demolition c1960.
