The "Fox and Hounds" has been on this site since 1966. It was a very popular venue in its day, being one of the first pubs to be very busy serving food in the 70's. However it closed doors for the last time in 2002. The Pub then remained closed until 2007 when the dilapidated skeleton was purchased and resurrected to the stylish Pub you see today. L&B Inns opened for business in April bringing employment and support to small businesses in the local area.
