Part of the building in medieval times was also known as The Eagle and Child Inn. The unusual name derives from Sir John Stanley in the 14th century. Legend recalls the adoption of a child in an eagle's nest. The last battle of the first English Civil War in 1646 took place at Stow-on-the-Wold, and reputedly Digbeth Street is so named as the place literally ran with blood from The Royalist casualties. The ducks were bathing from the blood, hence the 'Duck Bath'. Still visible in the rooms are the witches' marks, an ancient frieze and the thousand-year-old timbers.
