Now known as the Wishing Well at Tardy Gate, the Tardy Gate Inn dates back to the early 1800s. The 1844 map below clearly shows the existence of a public house at Tardy Gate and the basic building shape remains the same to this day so I can only assume this was the original location of the Inn. In the latter half of the 1800s and into the 1900s the Tardy Gate was a Whittle Springs Brewery public house.
