The Squire of Slaidburn was drinking in the Inn when he heard his dog Bounty barking outside and the squire is said to have uttered the words "Hark to Bounty". An unusual external stone staircase leads upstairs to the old Court Room which was as in use until the 1930s. Many fine relics are preserved there. The Inn remains very popular. largely unaltered on the exterior.
