| The Feathers Inn has a rich history, dating back to the early 1600s when it was called The Princes Arms and had been owned by various blacksmiths and tanners.
In 1615, Ralph Osbertson purchased the inn and later, in 1670, allowed his son to change the name to The Feathers. It subsequently became one of the busiest coaching inns in the area, stabling over 100 horses. Documents of the period mention 5 bedrooms, a step parlour, moon parlour, lion parlour and various other rooms.
