Comments:

The Rose and Crown at Huish Episcopi, Somerset has been an inn since it was built in the mid-17th century. It has been in the family of the present licensees for four generations. The inn is affectionately known as Eli's after Samuel Eli Scott.
Undoubtedly, the inn's most poignant features amongst the family photographs in the Front Room are the pictures of William and Jane Slade's two sons, Reg and Sidney, the Great Uncles of the present licensees, who were killed in action aged 23 and 19 on the Western Front during the First World War.

In 1871 William Slade became the Landlord on the Rose and Crown, which he ran with his Wife Jane. Jane died in 1920 and upon William's death in 1921; Eli Scott, the only son to return from action in the Great War, became the Landlord and ran the inn with his wife Maude.
