Barley Mow

Barley Mow

The Barley Mow is an historic public house, just south of the River Thames near the bridge at Clifton Hampden, Oxfordshire, England [http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/27/27395/Barley_Mow/Clifton_Hampden] . It was featured in Jerome K. Jerome's book "Three Men in a Boat":

:"If you stay the night on land at Clifton, you cannot do better than put up at the "Barley Mow." It is, without exception, I should say, the quaintest, most old-world inn up the river. It stands on the right of the bridge, quite away from the village. Its low-pitched gables and thatched roof and latticed windows give it quite a story-book appearance, while inside it is even still more once-upon-a-timeyfied.
