This quaint and historic pub, once a reputed hiding place for the notorious highwayman Dick Turpin and his brother Ed, is now a cherished piece of local history. Dick Turpin, a notorious 18th-century English criminal, is said to have used the natural cave located nearby as a shelter during his criminal escapades.
