The bar of the Bell Hotel looks out onto the old Market Square and there are lots of cosy areas tucked away off or away from the main bar,

Beers from Greene King always available, plus London Pride - with friendly bar service!.

It is a traditional coaching Inn with low ceilings, exposed beams and brickwork with a mix of wooden and stone-flagged floors. Its several hundred years of history (parts dating from the early 16th century) include time as a magistrates court, but - sadly - it stopped brewing its own beer in 1914 nor does the former brewer feature among its resident ghosts.

Being an hotel, the opening hours and meal times are extensive, including breakfast.

Good variety of freshly-prepared and cooked Award-winning pies are a speciality, including a Gold for Best Steak & Stilton pie in England! Their food uses local ingredients wherever possible. Inside the pub is the Bell Pie Shop for uncooked pie take-aways, open all day every day.

Historic Interest

The apparently disjointed nature of this pub and hotel's rooms reflects its steady development into an hotel by the mid-19th century, including incorporation of the Cock Inn late in the 18th century and the George Inn - at that time a Workhouse - in the 19th century. A relatively large percentage of the original buildings have been lost and replaced with a modern toilet block and function room, a carpark and several new dwellings and a beer garden which fronts onto Sheep Street. Other buildings located to the east of the car park access have become separated and no longer form part of the hotel.
