The Drunken Duck (Hawkshead to Ambleside) was once called that (Traveller's Rest).
Some farmer's wife with newly acquired ducks at Hawkshead market, on the way back to the farm, drops in and leaves her ducks out the back. She nips in for her half pint of gin and, on emerging, finds her ducks dead.
Or so she thought until one of their beaks opened and a large beery bubble emerged. Turned out that there was a leaking barrel and the ducks had taken a partial affinity to the amber nectar. The pub lost it's name then and there.
Used to be a great spit and sawdust Theakstons pub.....now very trendy

A body dripping blood came up in the pub's well bucket.......inside the pub.
