The Lord Nelson Inn (listed grade II)

Like Box House, a very early house was present on this site and was shown on a map of 1599 by Christopher Saxton, the eminent map-maker.

The present building (now a public house) is dated 1634 GCP (Gregory Patchett) and is constructed of rendered stone, with a stone slate roof and an L-shaped plan with rear wing.

The pub is particularly of note because of its association with Branwell Brontë, who used to frequent it when working as a booking clerk at Luddendenfoot railway station and because of the very early library there, which existed from 1776 until 1917.
