My Great Gran Sarah Harris was the Landlady here
from c1890 onwards. She used to watch the men from the iron foundry opposite
come into the pub to grab a pint, then sit outside on the iron foundry wall
in all weathers to drink the beer and eat their packed lunch. She decided to
make dozens of hot pies to sell, so they had a hot meal to eat at lunch. She
added sandwiches, cakes, etc. The milk boards 1950s ploughmans wasn't the
first "Pub Lunch"! |
