Fallen timber
The former Fir Tree Inn at Writhlington, now closed and looking forlorn. It dates back to 1832 and is believed to be named after a local tree (a 'holy elm') where seats were arranged around its base and the locals used to meet and socialise. The inn was a popular and active place for many groups and organisations; however, it also had its darker side when a poor coal haulier was murdered by three others; one of the accused was acquitted, another transported but the other hanged.
The present building is Grade II listed, but owners Pegasus Planning Group want to convert it into residential use. However, the inn has now lain empty for a few years now.
See Image] for a benchmark on the far right corner.
