Approximate indication of the site of the Robin Hood Inn.
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-02. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-06-17.
According to Roy Pledger, the long gone Robin Hood Inn in Barnsdale "once [...] displayed a three pint leather bottle, said to have belonged to Robin Hood."[1] I have not come across any mention of this priceless object elsewhere, and Mr Pledger does not cite any source, but a three pint leather bottle does seem a fitting relic for a leader of merry men. However, the collection of Robin Hood paraphernalia at the restaurant connected with Robin Hood's Well in Nottingham is also said to have included a Robin Hood's bottle.[2] Without reliable sources we cannot be certain that both of these Robin Hood relics really existed. Perhaps someone mistook the Nottingham well for that in Barnsdale or vice versa'?
