Inns were possibly first established when the Romans built their system of roads two millennia ago. The Gospel of Luke records there being "no room at the inn" at the time of the nativity of Jesus. Some inns in Europe are several centuries old.
In addition to providing for the needs of travelers, inns traditionally act as community gathering places.
So, welcome to our inn. It is a lovely resting place along a quiet country road for travellers to visit, it may be hundreds of years old and is now a special community gathering place.
In fact, it’s got all the creature comforts you could ask for. So work out the puzzle and enjoy. We hope it's not too puzzling!!
