New Inn, 46 Bulls Head Lane, Stoke

In 1982 this was referred to as a small but friendly backstreet local. Note that until recent years this was not the sole occupation of the licensee. Sadly, in early March 2025 the New Inn will be closing permanently. Another community local gone. These inns were once new, perhaps replacing older ones on the same site. Many new inns came into being in the sixteenth century as a result of Elizabeth I's policies.
