William Wells and Wife Amy were the publicans of this pub from 1944-1948, rented from Benskins Brewery. Amy was my grandmothers step sister. As for the picture of the pub, the building on the right was also part of the pub it was a 10 bedroomed inn. It had 3 stables and an orchard and rose garden. During the war the Americans airmen used this pub they would come in the night before a raid next time they came in there would be missing faces very sad.
