Hyde Name Origins.
The name "HYDE" is derived from the hide, a measure of land for taxation purposes, taken to be that area of land necessary to support a peasant family. In later times it was taken to be equivalent to 120 acres .
Church Inn
Yesterday we lamented the demise of the Cheshire Cheese public house which stood on Market Street and was one of Hydes great pubs for atmosphere and characters, especially on friday nights and at weekends.
Today is the turn of the Church Inn.
This was another extremely busy pub.
The Church Inn closed its doors around 2006 then became Tylers after it reopened and from then went on to be Route 66. Neither of them were ever as popular as the Church Inn was in its prime.
Another pub sadly missed.

I wish the Church was still open. They used to be a great crowd who drank in here in the 1970s.
So what has happened to the Cheshire Cheese? My uncle drank in there regularlky every weekend until he died siome years ago.
