History: A large pub, the central section was the original ‘Adswood Inn’, set back from the road behind a cobbled courtyard.. Inside there were three separate rooms, the original fourth having been opened up to the modern bar. The pub was in a residential area, was well supported and had a welcoming atmosphere. At the rear there was a large wall and tree enclosed garden with a children’s play area. Directly from the rear door you stepped under a large covered smoking and drinking area with a TV and fireplace! Oh, and one of the resident ghosts didn’t like clocks.
Historic Interest
Acquired by Frederic Robinson with the purchase of the Hempshaw Brook Brewery of Bell & Co, in June 1949.
