The Cock Inn, Mugginton

“If you’re called The Cock Inn, why is there a horse on your sign outside?” The subject of many a conversation in our bustling Farmer’s Bar and restaurant since we opened.

In the 18th and 19th centuries The Cock inn formed part of a principal route from London to Manchester. As well as being an inn and a toll bar, the pub also housed the ‘Cock Horses’ hired by drivers needing extra hire power to pull goods up the long hill. We decided to reflect the true history in our signage adopting an image of what we believe the old Cock horses looked like, we hope you like it!

The Cock Inn ceased trading on 2006, but was fondly remembered by many as a convivial meeting places for friends and family alike, which after 12 years and following our re-opening in 2016 we hope to continue to recreate those happy times.
