Moon Maiden Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Does anyone have any historical info on this pub? I have searched the net and come up only with The Burgoyne Arms was built within a couple of hundred yards of at least 4 breweries. This Stone's pub did not however obtain its beer from any of them. It does however have one of the many springs in its back yard. It was these sources of unpoluted water that led so many breweries to basethemselves in the area. It was originally a coaching inn on the main Sheffield to Penistone turnpike. Moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone on here a former regular has the building gone? Buildings still there - there's some pictures on the net of the interior now and it's in a bad state of repair.

medusa Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The building is in a sorry state and something needs to be done with it, either refurbishment or demolition in order to reuse the site. It's had vegetation growing out through the roof for a couple of years already, so it doesn't surprise me that the chosen course is demolition, especially given the lack of future use for a pub-shaped building when it's housing that is needed. Along with most pubs though, the site is a lot bigger than it looks once you add in cellars, yards and the like, so quite a few houses or flats could be built on it.

While agree with the need for housing theirs an danger we end up with street upon streets of housing that outstrips demand has buyers struggle to get on the property ladder. The Burgoyne could have easily been turned into flats but knowing how Pubcos hate to spend any money on maintenance the building could have been in a poor state.
