The Headless Woman pub a lost gem | Duddon, Cheshire

That brings back memories, back in the 50's 60's there was a painted life sized statue in the garden of a wouman with her head under her arm, we always used to look out for it on our way to Chester Zoo! Cant remember now when or why it was removed might have been because new landloads didnt like it or there were complaints about it.

My God Mother ran this pub in the 70's & 80's. I have seen the beer cellor, which had a 'bricked up wall', which they say ran from the pub to I think, 'Hockney hall'. It was used so that they could hide victims from and flee from Oliver Cromwell and his men. Thats all I know. weather its true or not, I really don't know.
