Brampton Hut c.1910 (Norris Museum)Brampton Hut
History of Brampton Hut
The Brampton Hut was closed in the 1990s and demolished during widening of the Great North Road. It was in existence by 1816 when the publican was Mrs Travell and was previously known as Creamers Hut.
In 1816 at Huntingdonshire Quarter Sessions, information was presented by Martha Ibbott of Southoe that she had travelled by the ‘Paul Jones’ stage coach from Alconbury to Southoe. They had come across a driver of a waggon, William Molan, badly injured and had taken him to Creamer’s Hut, Brampton, where the innkeeper, Mrs. Travell, refused to admit him. He died before the next public house was reached. Corroborative evidence by Nolan’s employer, John Nixon. Warrant granted. (Quoted on Lost Pubs website)
