Located on the A4189 road opposite a road called Highcroft. The publishers, Francis Frith, who have a photographic archive dasting back to 1860, have a photograph of this pub dating from around 1960. At the time the building was white-washed and displayed in large lettering the name of the brewery Hunt Edmunds. It was based in Banbury, Oxfordshire and its brewery was soon demolished after the company was swallowed up in the 1960's by the vast Bass, Mitchells & Butlers empire. Image
