Built in 1933 as a reincarnation of the original Bell Public House, which was situated in Bell Lane, and subsequently sub-divided into two private dwellings known as White Cottage and Bell Cottage. The principal L-shaped room consists of two dissimilar areas. The larger part to the front with oak panel clad walls, genuine leaded light windows and tables laid for dining is reminiscent of a lounge bar, whilst the smaller area towards the back is more indicative of a public bar with bare floorboards, a darts board and a thick rope suspended from exposed hefty pseudo, but realistic, ceiling joist. As Albert Pierrepoint wasn’t known to drink here the thick rope is probably in homage to the local tug-of-war team depicted in a couple wall pictures. A former skittles long alley is now a bookable restaurant/function room with windows overlooking the back garden. Outside are a lawned garden and a patio furnished with picnic tables.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 2 regular beers.
Bell, Burton Overy
