This is a really nice pub in The Village of Hoghton. The Boars head, it has just been totally refurbished, it's just a mile and a half or so up the road to the north from the Castle.
It has always served a nice pint and dished up a bloody good meal.
The building to the front of the photograph with the Landrover and pickup opposite is actually a workshop and yard. The owner does up mainly ex ministry (War Department) vehicles and retails them. The vehicles are always superbly presented and he has been operating for years.
Must have a good reputation.
Typical shot of local houses again in the vicinity, most are farm houses and or barns which have been purchased and renovated to exceptionally good standards.
An additional country road snap, I love them, but you have to drive carefully and be extremely cautious.
Superb how the trees have grown over into a natural arch.
Mustn't let the double decker buses use these roads.
