History on The Black Horse Public House
Dry Drayton's inns included the Five Bells, opened after 1810, where the Oakington road met the Huntingdon turnpike. Recorded from 1841 it became solely a farmhouse after 1912.In the village itself were the Three Horseshoes, recorded from the 1760s, and the Black Horse, open by c. 1780, which both survived into the 1930s. Only the Black Horse remained in 1985. A clubroom for the labourers' Shepherds friendly society had been built behind the Queen's Head beerhouse by 1876.
Unfortunately this is the only history i could find on the pub, if you have any other information on The Black Horse, do please contact us.
