The first mention of the George as an inn was recorded in 1490, although its foundations date back to 900. Henry VIII, James I and Georege V have all been guests and Charles Dickens is reputed to have written much of Martin Chuzzlewitt while staying here. The famous American poet, Ralph Waldo Emerson, stayed here during a visit to Stonehenge in July 1848. Roundhead Commander, Col. Fairfax used the inn as his headquarters during the civil war. This is just a taste of some the history of this hotel, which has far more than can be included here. Also rather quirkily the Hotel is the location of the Amesbury Aviation Museum, a small but interesting collection showing the aviation history of the area.
This Pub serves no changing beers and 1 regular beer.
