The original village pub was the Black Dog which was situated opposite the gates of Witham Hall and the grooms from the stables were often to be found there, much to the displeasure of their employer, the squire, who closed it down and replaced it in 1908 with the Six Bells which was built at the far end of the village out of temptation's way.
