John Willie Lees Wall Plaque


This beautiful ceramic tile display is on the south wall of the Blue Pits Inn at Castleton. The Blue Pits relates to the blue marl pits in the area from which nutrient rich clay (marl)was dug and used as an agricultural fertilizer. Marl pits date to the post-medieval period and their existence is often evident through field and place names.

J W Lees beer , although endorsed as "real ale" by CAMRA is vile stuff.
