Seeing the picture today of the narrow road over to Broughton Mills brought back more memories. In 1969 we were staying at the Ship and Eric Woolcock, the landlord, took us to the Blacksmiths. There was a large table in the small room with a few old locals sitting around. The landlady served Hartleys beer from a jug filled from barrels behind the bar. Magical. I was delighted to see (via Google) that the old place appears to be thriving with a restaurant attached. They must have bought some land for a car park because even in 1969 there was nowhere to park. Keep up the good work and best wishes. Roy in NZ.
