A MORE COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO OUR BUSINESS MAY BE FOUND ON OUR WEB SITE CHEQUERS1452,CO,UK Smugglers used this Inn extensively and it was this Inn that was associated with a famous mail coach robbery, which took place at the foot of Wall Hill on June 27th 1801. John Beatson and his adopted son William Whalley Beatson hid in a meadow at the bottom of Wall Hill, by the entrance to an old Roman road. The mail coach made its call at the Chequers Inn to collect the weekends mail and then proceeded up Wall Hill, where it was waylaid by these two robbers just after midnight. The Beatsons took between 4000 Pounds and 5000 Pounds of the approximately 14000 Pounds total the mail coach was carrying that night. Their trial took place on March 29th 1802, by Judge Baron Hotham with the jury finding both men guilty and sentencing them to death by hanging. Gallows were erected on the spot where the robbery took place on, April 17th 1802; in the presence of 3000 people, Beatson and his adopted son were hung until dead. This was to be one of the last public hangings to take place in England.
