My great grandfather Herbert Downes ran this pub at the start of the 20th century. My Mother used to sit on the bar and play the harmonica when she was young , and my Father used to go there because he fancied my Mother. He was a non drinker at the time, but he had to drink something in the pub, So he started on the alcohol. They were married in September 1928.
