Description

The Millstone public house is a popular local landmark and an architecturally strong and powerful building. There are remnants of an earlier building on the site, possibly relating to the previous pub or industry at the location. The present building was constructed in 1900, although it is known that there was a pub on site since at least the 1890s. The building has had numerous owners including J H Graham, Ridley Cutter and Firth, Deuchar’s, Newcastle Hotels Ltd, and Bass. LOCAL LIST
