The Pauncefote Arms was situated on Fosse Road. This pub was used as an Indian restaurant then later converted to residential use.
In 1965 I was a trainee pilot at RAF Syerston, 2 miles down the A46. Inevitably we used to frequent this pub. Often, my instructor (Angus Clydesdale) would join us and treat us to large amounts of beer. Angus, or to give his full title - Flight Lieutenant The Marquis of Douglas And Clydesdale, went on to be the Duke of Hamilton on his father’s death. He was a very nice guy. He often said he joined the RAF because the Army and the Navy were “a bit rough”.
