The Last Drop

            Hope you enjoy my "Last Drop Village Series of pictures"

The 'last drop' could refer to several things, among them execution by hanging, or 'ducking'. Not a real village, it was an old collection of farmhouses, converted ...

In 1930 a well-known farmer and race horse owner and trainer, William Carr, brought the farm and used Orrell Fold for stabling and exercising his horses.

The farm was eventually sold in 1963 to Carton Walker, a visionary entrepreneur who created The Last Drop Village.

The name was created as Mr Walker was celebrating the finishing touches on the restaurant. His friends offered him ‘the last drop’ of a bottle of wine to mark the occasion.
