My parents, Tom and Beryl Martin, bought the pub, I think it was 1966, and I lived there for awhile in 1967/68. It was free house and my Dad used to order new and different draught beers depending on customers tastes. This was before CAMRA was formed. I left the pub in 1968 to pursue a career in the catering business. My Mother died at the pub in July 1979 and Dad sold up and moved to Spain shortly afterwards. He passed away in 2004. I have some very happy memories of the pub, especially during the pheasant season.

My grand parents Charles & Nelly Brown ran The New Inn from 1953 to 1958. I remember spending weekends there when my parents Brenda & George Brown helped in the bar. I remember it being packed out and lots of laughter and a good sing song around the piano George used to play ( I really miss that). Nelly died in 1957, so Charles retired in 1958 and moved in with George & Brenda, he died in 1961. George died in 1988 and Brenda in 1992. I also met my husband at The New Inn, in 1968.
