It was owned by my great great grandfather, Benjamin Nichols when he was the manager of Harrison Barber Horse Slaughterers. The original yard is now a railway depot. He died in the late 1880's,

Catherine Beeson 1967/1968 My father, Terence Paul Driscoll, ran this pub for a few years, in the late 1960's. I helped out behind the bar occasionally at weekends (I was aged 12!) I remember the large garden (wilderness) and the friendly atmosphere. My father died in 2005.
