Compare this picture with that taken in 2004 Image It is now derelict and waiting re-development. The Inn was originally built in 1832 as a folly, by a gambler called Hodgson Apparently he built it to annoy the Vicar of Stannington who disapproved of gambling. The folly, which is five storeys high, can be seen from Stannington Vicarage. It is not known when it was converted into an Inn. Image Image Image For years it was known simply as Hodgson's Folly, and stands perched atop a sheer drop. The views from this Whitbread/Castle Eden pub are quite stunning.
