The Surrey Oaks at Parkgate 'The original parts of The Surrey Oaks date back to 1570. It seems, however that it did not become an inn until c. 1850 when Mary, widow of James Butcher, a wheelwright, was described in the tithe redemption schedule as an "innkeeper". In order to provide an additional income, Mary turned the house (which continued as a wheelwright's) into an inn'.
