Historic Interest
Dating back to 17th-century, the pub was bought by Bass from the Marquis of Anglesey in the early 19th-century when it was known as the Fox & Goose Inn. After the pub had been closed for ~2 years, the premises were bought by the founders of the Burton Bridge Brewery in 1981; the brewery and the Burton Bridge Inn opened in 1982.
