The front of The Yellow Cat is glimpsed behind this photo of Gnat Hole School. Little is known about the pub which has long been closed and is now two private residences. The official name may have been The Golden Lion.

The Crossings, Station Road. This pub was built in 1868 as the Station Inn, a two storey building. It was rebuilt in the late 19th century and re-named The Station Hotel. It originally incorporated a small self contained shop with living accommodation. When renovated by Robinson's brewery, the shop was incorporated into the pub and the name changed again.

The Traveller's Call / The Jolly Sailor, Station Road. Both names appear to have been in official use concurrently. Closed in 1908 under the terms of the Licensing Act of 1903.
