Description:The Roebuck is seen here standing at the junction of the A51 and A513. On the right is Wolseley Bridge spanning the River Trent.

In later years The Roebuck became known as The Wolseley Arms, however, the outward appearance of the building has not changed very much (except for the removal of the ivy). The main entrance was moved and accessed via a car park at the rear of the building.

This quiet road scene has changed and is (in August 2013) a busy junction with a road traffic island.

This view of The Roebuck was posted in Little Haywood in 1908 to an address in Hereford. The postcard was published by Pascoe & Son, Rugeley.
