Historic Interest

Formerly a Chesters house, the Pack Horse. Became the Lamp Hotel in the early 2000s. Pre 1982, it was know as the Higher Pack Horse. In 1982 it underwent a total refurbishment and was renamed the Big Lamp, offering a more modern experience with a successful lunchtime food offering. The Big Lamp was a name that had been a nickname for the pub many years before, as the pub had a large Lamp hanging above the entrance door, and as the story goes, mother's used to send their children to get their father's out of the pub, the one with the big Lamp! It remained as the Big Lamp until the late 1980s/early 1990s.
