<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif">I was first inspired to research the history of pubs in Chorley whilst tracing my family tree several years ago. I was born in Britain's brewing capital, Burton-on-Trent and most of the paternal side of my family hail from the Black Country in the West Midlands. When I learnt that a great uncle was previously the licensee of the Coach and Horses Public House in Tipton I began to scour the web and swiftly came across the most fantastic website called Hitchmough's Black Country Pubs, which is dedicated to plotting the history of over 5300 pubs in that area and is an amazing resource for historians and genealogists alike (</span><a href="http://www.longpull.co.uk/" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;" target="_blank">www.longpull.co.uk</a><span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif">). This blog is not meant to copy what Tony Hitchmough has created over 40 years of research but is inspired by his work and hopefully will prove useful to anyone interested in Chorley's heritage, of which, the humble tavern will always remain an important part...warts an' all!</span><br />

<span face=""trebuchet ms" , sans-serif">Chorley's pub heritage is said to date back as far as the Norman conquest and many believe the second oldest pub in the country stands on the outskirts of Chorley in the village of Limbrick; the Black Horse Inn. The author and researcher Thomas Burke claims that there has
been an Inn stood on the site of The Black Horse since before 1066, and parts
of the original cellar still stand and are used by the pub for serving beer
today.</span><br />

There's probably loads of people I've forgotten (sorry) but without all their help this blog would not have been possible. Most of all, my greatest thanks goes to Linda, who has put up with me whilst doing this "little" project!</span><br />
