The Blue Bell In 2013, after a decade as The Crosshills Tavern, this long standing public house regained its original name. The Blue Bell was built in c1900 to serve the influx of miners to the town. It replaced an earlier pub of the same name that stood on the site. 1822, it was run by Mary Haigh. Reputedly, the building was part of Wootens Farm before it became a public house. Church Field (earlier known as North Field) spread out behind the Blue Bell.
