Some of the HISTORY surrounding the Muckley Corner Hotel (known, for an interval as the Olde Corner House Hotel).

We have added a recently found photograph of the bar in about 1900, and, as we learn more, be adding more information about this interesting site, once near a canal, once a post house coaching inn. And now, click on the photo to see more . .. If you know something about the history of Muckley Corner and would like to tell us about it, please either drop in or send us an email - you will find an email form here CONTACT

Parts of the building date back to 1683 - it was indeed the original Old Coaching Inn.  Trading well and expanding under private ownership until 1891, when the whole premises were sold together with 8 acres of ground to a small brewery who built a new Inn (which explains the superb cellars) on part of the grounds and selling off the buildings which were converted to small cottages. These cottages have since been re-acquired and now form part of the hotel.

You might wonder where the name Muckley Corner comes from - well, an article on the internet tells us that it means the great leah (a wood or clearing in woodland).
