I believe this was once the Plough Hotel. In bygone days this was a popular coaching inn and, until relatively recently still had stables. Another common name for the inn was the 'halfway house' being approximately halfway between Edinburgh and Newcastle. Information kindly given by Mr. Simon Goldsmith whose step father was once the landlord.
