More about this scene
The building on the left is the Old Jack Inn. It was once the tradition here that any traveller passing by could drink his fill for just one penny from a large leather flagon. Perhaps the price of ale rose too high, or perhaps it was just that too many travellers took advantage of this generosity. Whatever the reason, the flagon mysteriously disappeared in the 1800s!
