The Old White Lion - A History. The date at which there was first a public house at the corner of Haworths village green at the top of Main Street is not known. The first recorded name is the Blue Bell Inn some time before 1783 and it may well be that the inn dates to the early days of the 1755 Blue Bell turnpike road from Bradford to Colne which passes the front door. Certainly by 1783 the place had acquired the name of the White Lion Inn and it was run by Jeremiah Jowett who rented it for £17 a year. One of our earlier notices of the White Lion dates from the end of the eighteenth century and records that Haworths first Masonic lodge met here. This was the Prince George Lodge which met at the White Lion form 1796 to 1802 and again from 1809 to 1812. The Prince George Lodge amalgamated in the latter year with the Three Graces Lodge which met at the Black Bull and the Prince George name was transferred to a lodge in the Todmorden area. William Garnett bought the White Lion in the 1820s and ran it for about twenty years. He died in 1859 after a long retirement and is buried in St. Michaels churchyard nearby. In 1850 the Lion was bought by J. R.R. Thomas, prominent citizens of Haworth in the Bronte era who were wine and spirit merchants. They also owned the Cross Inn opposite the Church gates (now Snowdens grocery shop). During the Thomass ownership the place was rebuilt being described as recently rebuilt in a document of 1858. This was probably not before time as B.H. Babbage writing a few years earlier had this to say: In a back yard in the Ginnel belonging to the White Lion, I found a large midden-stead with offal and garbage from a slaughter-house in it; the drainage from this place flowed over the pavement of the yard in its way to the street drain. Some of the neighbours complained of this nuisance. It would seem that the pub sign played an unusual role around this time in the neighbouring village of Stanbury. A friend of the Thomas family recorded that a wooden lion apparently some publicans sign was placed in the pulpit at the Wesleyan Chapel in Stanbury to play a leading role in the sacred drama Daniel in the Lions Den. There was a succession of tenants during these years but in the 1860s it passed into the hands of John Pickles bynamed Johnny Broth - who ran the establishment himself until 1875 when he was succeeded by his wife Susey who ran it until 1881. During her time the White Lion also served as a Posting House. Her son William was described as a coachman. After this the Lion was acquired by Samuel Ogden who owned one of Haworths two principal breweries. His premises were situated at the Fallwood Brewery at the bottom of the village not far from the railway station. When Ogden's ceased brewing around the beginning of the First World War they leased the inn first to Whitaker Co. of Halifax and later to Bentley's Yorkshire Brewery
