The Throstles Nest, Wigton - May 2017
A relatively new pub, built and opened by the State Management Scheme on 5 July 1960. It may have replaced an earlier pub to the left in this view, but available sources are vague.

Black-A-Moor Hotel, Wigton - May 2017 (1)
The hotel appears on the 1864 OS Map and is probably much earlier. In addition to having what may now be seen as a politically incorrect name and pub sign, the pub's other claim to fame is that the broadcaster, writer and novelist Melvyn (now Lord) Bragg was brought up in the pub from the age of 8 after his father Stanley took the tenancy shortly after the end of World War II.

House, King Street, Wigton
This house has an elaborately decorated doorway. It is perched on high ground, much higher than the Black-a-moor next door, which must presumably be on a site dug out of the hillside.
