			NUFFIELD
			COURT HOUSE
There was probably a medieval courthouse, a meeting place where justice was meted out, at Courthouse Green. This later became Courthouse Farm. The pub, on the corner of Blackberry Lane and Nuffield Road, looked to be a between-the-wars building. In the days when Morris Engines plant was in full production, this pub would be full to bursting at lunchtimes but it closed in 2009 and was demolished the following year. The building of 323 new houses on the site commenced in 2012.
