I remember this chiefly as a pub with a wonderful view over the Rivelin Valley. It served splendid Sunday lunches and there were folk evenings and quiz nights. Built into the steep valley side, the inn had five floors. It was erected in 1832 and was originally known as "Hodgson's Folly". Yet another in the long list of traditional English pubs that have closed their doors forever.
