The Blue Bell Frontage

The Blue Bell Inn dates from the late 1700's and originally was the village Blacksmiths. Actually 3 cottages at one point, The Blue Bell is a cosy village pub which seats a maximum 42 people - so booking is advisable. With strong links to the local church The Blue Bell is situtated opposite the church on the crossroads and in the late 1700's when couples were married in the church, their names were inscribed on the bell ringing tower wall in cake circles and the party were given a penny to spend in The Blue Bell or in the Harrow Public House(which no longer exists)
