This well-known Lakeland inn can trace its history back to an ale house that stood here in 1689. It was originally known as the White House but had the nick-name 'Mortal Man' from the rhyme about Sally Birkett's ale which now appears on the inn sign. The building enjoys a spectacular view down the valley.
