More about this scene

Pevsner says of Great Budworth that it is 'one of the best pieces of villagescape in the county. Yet there is hardly a house that would need a close look'. There were once four pubs in Great Budworth – the White Hart, the Ring o'Bells, the Saracen's Head and the George and Dragon (left), the only one to survive. It has a particularly fine wrought iron sign.
