The Olde Ship is a historic building in Pilling, Lancashire, England. It was built in 1782 for sea captain and slave trader [1] George Dickinson (1732–1806),[2] and has been designated a Grade II listed building by Historic England.[3] [4]
The building was used as a farmhouse, owned by a Mr Whiteside, in 1815,[5] while William Armer was landlord, when the property was a public house, for 36 years, retiring in 1927 at the age of 68.[6]
The village smithy adjoined the inn. It is now a private residence.[1]
