When the first edition of the Ordnance Survey Six-Inch map of the area was published in 1865, Killingworth Village was served by two public houses, the Killingworth Arms Hotel and the Plough Public House. Both still exist to this day although the Plough was rebuilt in 1910. Somewhere along the way the word 'Hotel' has been dropped from the name of this particular establishment https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6693412.
