Image: © Humphrey Bolton Taken: 22 Jan 2007
This pub is not named on the 1850 6” map, and was perhaps established to take advantage of the adjacent cricket ground and the well-known landmark, Round Hill. The puib and the cottages are built in a strip of land that was probably enclosed from the roadside waste, Clough Lane being a medieval main road. The present alignment of the road and the cutting from the top of which the photograph has been taken are due to the construction of the M62.
