The former Rose Inn. Picture taken in 1993. |
Not to be confused with the pub with the same name just a few miles away
at Church Whitfield. See "Rose
Inn" Church Whitfield.
The premises is now a farm called Old Rose Farm and is a private estate.
The resident, A. J. Powers tells me (2011) that the tree shown in the
picture above was cut down in 2001 and there is now a detached garage in its
place.

From an email received 7 April 2011.
David Harvey kindly emailed me
with the following information:-
Isaac James Harvey, one of the licensees, was my grandfather. He
moved into the pub in 1900 but I do not have the exact date. He left on
17th October, 1929 when the licence was taken over by 'Mr. Philpott'.
Though I cannot be certain, I believe this was Fred Philpott shown in
your list. I have the original statement of the transfer which show the
fittings and stock to have been worth £38. 8s. 11d. After expenses, my
grandfather received £31. 1. 8d. One of the deductions was licence 4s.
0d. which might have referred to the first 16 days of October prior to
the transfer.
