Post by: TraceyD on Wednesday 28 July 10 19:41 BST (UK)

Hi,

Does anyone know anything about the history or where I can find some information about the Buffalo's Head Inn, that I understand was once in Market Place, Uttoxeter.

Thanks
Tracey

Thanks Cathy and Bilge, also found this info via Google but that seems to be all there is on-line.  Interesting to learn though that what was the Buffalo's Head Inn was once part of the Old Crown Inn.  I knew that my GG Grandfather William Stokes was once a beerhouse keeper, but recently learnt that the family had a connection to Buffalo's Head.

Are you still researching your ancestor at the Buffalo's Head?
