Your clue gave that one away, John!

Well done Diapason.  It is indeed the Penny Pot Inn.  Just down the road from the now closed Thruxted Mill Animal Processing Plant.  The stench in the area was terrible.  They were fined for allowing liquids from the plant flow into the surrounding countryside.  Had been going on unsighted for years it seems.  Now, there is a planning application to build a small housing estate on the land.


I used to have to drive past it at times and my normally docile Labrador would immediately change character.  He would emit a low primeval growl, the whites of his eyes would show and his lips would go back.  Like a canine version of The Exorcist.  I was expecting his head to turn 360 degress!  Real spooky stuff!


Over to you ...

Quite rural.  A private dwelling now.


Close to a now closed processing plant.

Spot on, no nuns were harmed in the clues of this question  :o .  I can't remember the exact details but I think it was something to do with land titles

Found this but it hasn't helped me so far.
Bishop's finger - a sign post direction post standing at a corner where two or more way meet, and pointing out the road travellers should take.

Anything to do with a pilgrimage route that Catholics might make?
