More about this scene

Moving northwards from the church along the Hollow, the path crosses Main Street into Sapley Road. It is difficult today to imagine that this is the sight that would have greeted travellers. The house on the left has been totally restored and renovated. The building opposite has changed beyond description. Only the Barley Mow (ahead), built using the stone from the spire of St Benedict`s Church at Huntingdon, survives; it is now a bustling and busy roadhouse full of the sound of piped music and merry chatter. One wonders what Henry Stevens, the landlord in 1907, would have thought of the modern Barley Mow - and we might ask why he decided to sport a White Ensign endorsed `The People` on the front wall of the pub.
