The Horse and Groom in Castleside
This is the oldest pub in the village and dates back to the droving days in the 18th century. It was known then as the Lane Ends Inn, probably because it is situated at the point where Drover Road connects with the main road through the village. In those days it brewed its own beer and had a smithy attached.

The Horse and Groom, Castleside
There has been a pub on this spot for a long time. In the early 18th century it was called the Lane Ends Inn, and stood on the main drove road south from Scotland. This was before the village of Castleside came into existence. I don't know how much of the present building dates back to then.
