Summary
West Butts dates to at least the early-mid 19th century, based on cartographic evidence. Depicted on the 1840s Tithe Map, it appears to have retained some of its original layout and served as the New Inn in the later 19th century. East Butts was added by 1905, by which time the inn appears to have ceased trading.
