 The Fox and the Hounds Pub

 Originally erected as a War to End All Wars Memorial, the back side is a WWII Memorial as well.

 Unfortunately, everything in Wylam seems to be for sale.  In the background may be the exception, a new Tea and Wine shop has opened up.

 This is the Bartender, she carried the Torch on a leg to Hexham.  She gets to keep it, and she was showing it off to all of us in the restaurant.
