More about this scene
An attractive corner of medieval Sithestan (1254). The house which forms the angle with Chapel Street on the left is pre-17th-century, lately repainted and rethatched. The turn of the century Bull's Head pub is now in use as the Syston District Social Club; as is so common in the village, over half the buildings in the middle distance have gone to make way for unattractive 1970s replacements. Adjacent to the thatched house is an excellent early 19th-century three-storey red brick residence which overlooks The Green on its south side.
