Meet the team! 🐾

This week, we'd like to introduce two very important members of The Bell Inn family - our paw-fect Co-Managers, Joe and Louie! 🐶

Joe has been part of The Bell Inn team since the very beginning, while Louie joined the family 9 months ago. Together, they work tirelessly behind the scenes, keeping spirits high, welcoming guests, and making sure everything is running smoothly around the pub (with plenty of tail wags along the way!)

Joe
Favourite Drink: Paw Star Dog Martini
Favourite Dish: Fish & Chip Dog Bowl

Louie

From greeting visitors to conducting regular quality checks on treats, Joe and Louie are a huge part of what makes The Bell Inn such a special place. Their dedication, enthusiasm, and expert snack-testing skills never go unnoticed!

Next time you're visiting, be sure to stop by and say hello to our four-legged management team. They always love making new friends! 🐕❤️

The History of The Bell Inn 🔔

Take a look at some of the initials that have been carved into the side of our building and fire place over the years.

We often find ourselves reflecting on the happy memories that have been made here at The Bell Inn and the many people who have passed through its doors. These markings are a small but fascinating part of our history, and we believe many of them may have been left by previous workers within the local area.

What we'd love even more, however, is to discover the stories behind them. Do any of these initials look familiar? Do you know who they belonged to, where they came from, or the history behind them?

If you have any information, we'd be delighted to hear from you. Help us uncover another chapter in The Bell Inn's story by sharing your memories in the comments or sending us a message.
