About: Coaching inn

An Entity of Type: WikicatBuildingsAndStructuresByType, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The coaching inn (also coaching house or staging inn) was a vital part of Europe's inland transport infrastructure until the development of the railway, providing a resting point (layover) for people and horses. The inn served the needs of travellers, for food, drink, and rest. The attached stables, staffed by hostlers, cared for the horses, including changing a tired team for a fresh one. Coaching inns were used by private travellers in their coaches, the public riding stagecoaches between one town and another, and (in England at least) the mail coach. Just as with roadhouses in other countries, although many survive, and some still offer overnight accommodation, in general coaching inns have lost their original function and now operate as ordinary pubs.

Just as with roadhouses in other countries, although many survive, and some still offer overnight accommodation, in general coaching inns have lost their original function and now operate as ordinary pubs. Coaching inns stabled teams of horses for stagecoaches and mail coaches and replaced tired teams with fresh teams. In America, stage stations performed these functions. Traditionally English coaching inns were seven miles apart but this depended very much on the terrain. Some English towns had as many as ten such inns and rivalry between them was intense, not only for the income from the stagecoach operators but for the revenue for food and drink supplied to the passengers. Barnet, Hertfordshire still has an unusually high number of historic pubs along its high street due to its former position on the Great North Road from London to the North of England. (en)
  • In Europa, dalla metà del XVII secolo, per un periodo di quasi tre secoli, le locande di posta e osterie di posta (in francese: auberges de la Poste; in inglese: coaching inn, o anche coaching house o staging inn; in tedesco: Gasthof zur Post o Gasthof Post) furono una delle strutture più importanti per i viaggiatori di terra. Erano delle locande che facevano parte delle stazioni di posta e avevano la funzione di dare vitto e alloggio ai viaggiatori in diligenza. Alcune di esse sono giunte ai nostri giorni mantenendo, in italiano, il nome "Hotel della Posta", "Albergo della Posta" o "Ristorante della Posta". (it)
  • Een uitspanning (ook: afspanning en relais) is van oorsprong de plaats waar rijtuigen van frisse paarden werden voorzien. De gebruikte paarden werden uitgespannen om te kunnen uitrusten. Omdat dit enige tijd in beslag nam, bezaten veel uitspanningen een café met een gelegenheid om iets te eten en te drinken. Het woord uitspanning wordt gebruikt voor plekken waar reizigers of toeristen kortere tijd verblijven, meestal tijdens een uitstapje. Veel uitspanningen hebben extra faciliteiten, zoals een speeltuin voor de kinderen. Deze speeltuinen groeiden vaak uit tot de voornaamste attractie. (nl)
