HISTORY:
A public Beer House was built of stone around 1858 , where "The Traveller's Rest" is now, it was called "The Greyhound" - Robert Fenwick was the first Licensee and he also worked as a Cobbler. During the 1870's, Alexander Livingstone was the Beer House Keeper and he also had another job, i.e. In 1891, the house was called "The Board", which was once a common name for a Pub, and was ran by George Stott. Public houses showing no Sign were commonly called the Board or sometimes the Letters. George had been a Butcher at Streetgate, his younger brother William, kept "The Rose, Shamrock and Thistle", as well as being a Butcher. By 1894, George had changed the name to "The Traveller's Rest". In 1910, Richard Dillon (1863 - 1948), was the Beer Retailer at the "Traveller's Rest". Richard was the eldest child of Patrick and Bridget Dillon, of Granby Terrace. He had five sisters and four brothers. In his younger days, Richard worked at Marley Hill Coke Ovens, along with his father and brothers. Around 1912, the stone house was replaced by larger premises - the present brick building. Around 1925, Richard's wife Lottie, opened a Fish and Chip shop, next door to the Pub, where "The Beauty Box" is now, then after the Second World War, she rented the place out, as a Ladies Hairdresser's, probably the first in the village. The cellars beneath the Pub, at one time, extended beneath the Hairdresser's shop (now blocked off). At the beginning of the Second World War, Charlie Dillon, strengthened this part, for use as an air-raid shelter. Around 1929, Tom Punshon came from the "Black Horse", in Burnopfield, with his daughter Annie. Some Boxing Tournaments were held at the rear of the Pub in the 1930's and later, Marley Hill Colliery Band practised here. On Durham Miner's Gala Day, they met and played outside, in front of the Pub. TAKEN FROM:
