Bramford Bell
West, 52.07521,1.09802
Closed: before 1751?
6, 8, 10 The St
grid reference TM 124 463
The building dates from mediaeval times. It isn't shown as a pub on any available OS maps (as early as 1882) so presumably closed before that date.
The building in our photo is confirmed as the old Bell by the Listed Buildings Register.
