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.
