The Finch Hatton Arms was built as an Inn and was auctioned in 1875. It was intended to replace the cottage Pub called The Angel Inn which was situated just to the North of the present building and closer to the roadside. It was purchased by the Haverholme Estate then owned by the Finch Hatton family thus taking the family crest as its name ; The Finch Hatton Arms. It was run by a manager as a kind of ‘Shooting Lodge’ for the Gentleman’s Estate which offered Hunting, Fishing and Shooting. The 'Finch' is still a good local inn serving fine ales and food.
