The Withies pub sign, Withies Lane
The Withies is a popular 16th century pub with restaurant. Although not as old as the pub, the sign seems to have been there for a good many years, and is quite faded. The other side is even more difficult to decipher. According to Wikipedia, a withy is the name given to strong flexible willow stems that are typically used in thatching and for gardening. It seems quite possible that the pub has been known as The Withies throughout its long history. Image; Image
