It is not the usual criteria when looking to sell on your beloved business that you’d choose a prospective purchaser with not much spare cash.

But it was a prudent move by the former owner and landlady of a pub in one of the remotest locations of the North York Moors, and as far as that goes, it was a prudent move to have started the business in the first place. The Birch Hall Inn in the hamlet of Beck Hole, is a short pub walk away from the village of Goathland. I was going to add that Goathland is a much more well known place name, thus an easier reference to place, but actually I am not sure.

calls it a gem of a place and a time-warp. It is cash only and thankfully not a QR code to be seen. The menu is as follows. Pork pies or sandwiches that are cheese and pickle or ham and pickle. Maybe cheese and ham. Perhaps there had been a pub or a building here in the 17th century but what is more certain is that the original construction of the current building is of mid to late 18th century and at that time was two single storey cottages.
