The Fountain Tea Rooms - A Brief History

Originally known as the New Inn, it was one of nine pubs in the village at a time when lead mining was a major occupation and critical to the economy of the village. Apart from lead mining being thirsty work, ale was believed to protect the miners from “belland”, or lead poisoning, the perfect excuse to call in after a hard shift down the mine. Ale was considered safer to drink than water from springs that were often polluted and unsanitised, an important everyday essential.

The earliest recorded publican was Daniel Bower in the 1840’s, followed by George Higgott and his wife Elizabeth. The current owners took ownership of the building in 2011 and carried out an extensive but sensitive conversion into The Fountain Tea Rooms which has proved popular for many years with the locals and tourists alike.
