Little is known about the history of the Bush Inn. One possibility is that the pub originally consisted of two cottages which were linked to form the existing premises. The Bush Inn is shown on an 1860s OS map together with the now demolished Crown. There is an inn shown on an 1830s map, but it is unclear whether this was The Bush Inn or The Crown. The Bush Inn , The Crown, The Squirrel (at the Square - now demolished) and The Queen http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1612705 were used by workers at the adjacent quarry, mine and brickyards, all now closed.
