The New Inn
The New Inn in Needwood, once an 18th-century coaching inn, provided accommodation and sustenance for weary travellers passing through the historic Needwood Forest. With a rich history as a Mail Coach stop, it featured original elements such as a bakers oven and a long-forgotten third floor, reflecting its storied past.
In recent years, the inn became known for its connection to the local biking community, hosting events like Sunday Summer BBQs, while also supporting local charities. After closing in 2014, the property was sold multiple times and is currently being transformed into apartments, marking the end of an era for this once-beloved hostelry. Generated from the website
