HERE are three ventures under one roof at Mitton Hall — Old Stone House Eating Establishment, Owd Ned’s Tavern and Mitton Hall Lodgings. The 140-seat Old Stone House is a now a firm


favourite for diners from near and far. The food is freshly cooked in its own pizzeria and kitchen, with English, Italian, and French dishes, plus wines from around the world, always available. The restaurant is open seven days a week and the


atmosphere is informal. Children are welcome and have their own special menu. The management does not take advanced bookings except for parties of 10 and


over and at Christmas. “Anyone can come along and have a meal. That is

GLASSES were raised on Monday to


toast the 10th anniversary of the opening of the popular Old Stone' House Eating Establishment at


Mitton Hall. The restaurant is


housed in the ancient part of the building which stands in its own wooded grounds in the beautiful Mitton countryside two miles

anniversary celebrations were fit for a Ling. . . in more ways than one. For the Old Stone


House staff genuinely believe that the “customer is always king,” and the hall itself has a link with royalty, too. The oldest part of the

one of our strong points, and we put on an exten­ sive range of dishes at good value for money,” said managing director Pam Long. “We like catering for


family groups, so if granddad doesn’t like Italian or French dishes and the rest of the family does then he is


also catered for.” Pam and her assistant, Trudy Birtwell, also pride


themselves on customer care and making visitors feel at home. “There are no uniforms or badges here," said Trudy. “Customers tell us they like our informal atmosphere and that is, undoubtedly, one of our main


attractions.” The historic atmosphere is also a great attraction


and customers show a lot of interest in the original features of the main hall where part of the restau­ rant is accommodated. A room adjoining the main hall and an upstairs room also form part of the eat­ ing establishment. The restaurant is open between 7 p.m. and 10-30


p.m. on six days a week, from noon to 2 p.m. on Saturdays, and on Sundays from noon to 10-30 p.m.


continuously. Owd Ned’s Tavern adjoining the restaurant is open


all day every day, from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., for the best of home-made country inn fare. The menu is designed to suit all palates and tastes, both large and small. There is also a great selection of traditional cask ales, guest beers and lagers to choose from. The department is under the careful and skilful scrutiny of bars man­ ager Paul Cryer, who has built up an excellent repu­ tation during his eight years in the job. “He likes to introduce new ales to the customers


as well as stocking the traditional ones and this is one of the services most appreciated by our cus­


tomers,” said Pam. Meanwhile, Mitton Lodgings — there are 14 double


bedrooms — offer one of the best deals anywhere. The lodgings are run on the American style, payment being made for the room and not for the number of guests in


each room. There are bathrooms en-suite and every room also


has a colour TV and tea and coffee making facilities.

building was built around 1514 by a kinsman of Henry VII. Its original oak panelling, enormous stone fireplace in the main hall and the minstrels’ gallery above, bear testimony to its ancient past. It even has a priest hole and the stained glass windows in the main hall arc also another historic feature of the building. It is difficult to realise


completely refurbished — it was almost a ruin,” she said. “Now people come back time and again because they enjoy the atmosphere as well as the food.”


The hull, once a


that the hall, now so elegantly and comfortably furnished, was shuttered and left to deteriorate for some years before managing director Pam Leng moved in with her innovative ideas. “The inside had to be


country club, is now full of life. Even the ancient fireplace has been brought back into use and every night during the winter months, logs burn brightly in the hearth.


So, when the glasses were raised to toast the


success of the Old Stone House, the well-wishers were also paying tribute to the team which has brought such a beautiful building back into use. Some 500 guests joined


in the celebrations and Pam and her assistant,


Trudy Birtwell, laid on a superb curvery and cabaret as a way of saying thank you to their many regular customers.


Pam and Trudy


mingled with the guests. “There were no official


. speeches, for we like to keep our atmosphere informal and friendly,” said Pam. “Trudy and I went round the guests individually thanking them for supporting us for the past 10 years. We have enjoyed their company and hope they have enjoyed ours as much.”


Helping to make the


celebrations a night to remember were popular singing duo High Jinks, from Great Harwood, and soul singer Humilton Brown.
