This pub hasn't been given this unusual name as part of a "Slug & Lettuce" type of pub chain. It has had this name for decades, certainly as far back as the 1920's for sure, and probably earlier. Originally it was part of a farm, and the earliest reference to the pub is as far back as 1769. At one time the coroner's court was held here. The name commemorates the produce of the livestock and fields of the old farm. Image
