The present lessees have been in situ for the last 6 years and are leaving to retire. The Widows Son is known as the ‘Bunhouse’ and a tradition of hanging a bun in the bar on each Good Friday dates back to Nelsons time when a landlady put a bun aside for the return of her sailor son. The Royal Navy now attend for an official service on this date each year to commemorate the occasion.
