The Warren House Inn 1931
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

In the 1960s I took my parents to stay in a bungalow a short distance from the Warren House Inn. The bungalow was called The King's Oven, and we rented it for a week. It had been used as accomodation for the tin mine inspector when he visited the area. Sadly, it has since been demolished, but I can still discern where it used to be. While we were there, my father used to like to stroll up the road to the Warren House Inn for a drink.

RE: RE: King's Oven

My grandparents Archie and Vera Winterburn lived at Kings Oven from 1956 and ran a mobile green grocers and B&B from it. We are in the process of publishing my grandfather's account of those times.
