Mobley is half a mile to the east of Berkeley and is sometimes listed as being in the Parish of Hamfallow.
The Plough at Mobley had a long association with the Cornock family. When Rose Cornock died in the 1950’s it seems that the Plough Inn ceased trading. The pub was then selling Georges Beers from Bristol.
The brick built building is now a private residence called the Old Plough and is located near the roundabout at the southern end of the Berkeley by-pass. A date stone on the property reads 1858.
