The Boot Inn, BURNLEY, Lancashire

This grade II listed building was designed in the ‘Edwardian Baroque style’ in 1911 by Blackpool architect H Thompson. He also designed The White Lion on the opposite corner of Parker Lane. The ‘Boot’ replaced an earlier Boot Inn, which stood on the same site and was originally a small farmhouse. Like several other farmhouses in Burnley, it was converted into a public house in the late 18th or early 19th century.
