The Robin Hood Inn in Mawdesley is located at the junction of Bluestone, Tannersmith, Tincklers and Sydbrook lanes. Its history goes back to 1841 if not earlier.
According to a recent advert, the history of the pub goes back to the 15th century, but a local researcher has found no evidence to support this claim. The earliest landlord we have any information about is a Hugh Swift, who is listed as publican in 1841. There is no evidence it was named the Robin Hood at the time but also no evidence that its name ever changed. Tincklers Lane was previously named Robin Hood Lane.[1]
