Glemsford Cock
Closed between 2013 and 2015?
27 Egremont St, CO10 7SA
grid reference TL 828 474
The precise closure date is uncertain, but was probably after 2013 and before 2015. Now a B&B.
It was a cosy, unspoilt pub with heavily beamed ceilings. Known to date back at least to 1793, when the Bury & Norwich Post reported a meeting of the Glemsford Association at the inn.
The pub is shown (but unnamed) on this old OS map from about 1924 (interactive map)
