The sign above the door ....... doing the essential walk and making it historic .... no. 19

Now I blame  that fashion in pub sinage, which aimed for simplicity.

Out went the old hand painted pub signs for a corporate logo and with it came a rebranding which saw the centuries old name discarded for a themed name.

But at least the Ploughon Heaton on Moor Road has retained its carved stone above the door and the inscription below it.

And that dear read is the story ... gaze and appreciate.

Location; Heaton Moor
