The pub (originally the Half Moon Inn) was taken over following the Second World War by an RAF mosquito pilot named John Liddle, who renamed it The Pathfinders in honour of the pilots and the proximity to the nearby Thornaby airfields. Original memorabilia, including Mr Liddle's portrait and commendations, are still on display in the pub today."[2]
