The Eagle at Weeton (formerly the Eagle and Child) is a public house in Weeton, Lancashire, England. Dating to 1585, it is one of the oldest public houses in the county[1] and in north-west England. A set of steps in front of the property date to the 18th century, and are listed.[2]
Situated on the former estate of Lord Derby,[3] [4] the building was once a courthouse. Judge and Puritan activist Michael Livesey, who signed the death warrant for Charles I, is believed to have presided there.
Matthew Anderton was the pub's landlord in 1851.[5]
The pub was known as the Eagle and Child until it underwent a £750,000 renovation in 2019, at which point its name reverted to its 16th-century name, the Eagle.[6] It has also been named The Holy Lamb. The building had a thatched roof until a fire in the 1960s.[7]
Star Pubs and Bars, a subsidiary of Heineken, is the owner of the establishment.
