Wem's last surviving back street pub and still very popular. Sometimes known as the Hole in the Wall but that probably never was its official name. Certainly in the 1900 Census it is shown as the Dickin Arms. Named after a well-known local family. Next door, on the right, is Bakery Cottage which gives a good indication of what trade used to be carried out there. Image Image Image
