Castle Cary, Somerset Beggars Bush 1839

A draft chapter for VCH says “Smallway Lane, recorded in the later 17th  century,  cut off the junction of the two roads from Sparkford and continued across country to Wincanton. It was sufficiently well used to support a beerhouse after 1839 on land called Beggars Bush”.

There another sites in Bruton and Evercreech nearby.
