The New Inn

The New Inn isn’t within Hickling parish but there are references to Hickling business being carried out there and it was sited on the edge of Hickling Pastures. The Inn is now known as New Inn Manor and would have been on the edge of the major through route north to south for the area (A46/Fosse Way) – it now stands just to the east of the A46 Widmerpool road island.

The New Inn has anecdotal associations with Dick Turpin and the old mounting block is now marked with a plaque:
