Walk or ride to discover other Haughton landmarks

The War Memorial commemorates the Haughton servicemen who gave their lives in the two World Wars.

This building next to the church, now a B&B, was formerly the school.  Built in 1841, it was extended in 1904.  It was closed in 1980 when the school moved to a new building on the corner of Rectory Lane and Prince Avenue.

This house was the home of the school teacher.

The former Railway Inn is next to the bridge and Greenway on Station Road.

This building on the corner of Jolt Lane has been a pub called the New Inn and the Post Office.

The new rectory, on the corner of Rectory Lane and Brazenhill Lane, built in 1958, replaced the large Georgian one which was demolished in the 1960s.  

The church gates commemorate the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.

The gates into the cemetery are in memory of John Spencer Twemlow Royds (1921-1981).

The distinctive grey Airey houses on Prince Avenue, built from precast reinforced concrete after the Second World War, were found to be defective and were refurbished and made structurally sound at the turn of the century.

 

 

The well-equipped playground is a short walk down Brazenhill Lane.

The burial ground on the corner of Rectory Lane and Brazenhill Lane began to be used in 1927 when the church graveyard became full.
