More about this scene
The famous Sykes family, who owned the land around here, are worthy of a book to themselves, but space does not permit. Triton is a sea god depicted on the Sykes' family coat of arms, symbolising the family's earlier period as sea merchants. It will come of little surprise that the pub thrives, whilst the Post Office is long gone.
