This grade II listed building was built in 1797 as an Inn, possibly in conjunction with the Grand Union Canal on to which it backs. It became derelict when a lorry crashed into it in the 1980’s, then after much effort to preserve the property for the village it was acquired by Northants County Council in 2006 under a compulsory purchase order. Ways are now being explored to bring it back into community use.
