The George in gentler colours
The well-known old watering hole has had some new paint applied.
As the Totterdown area was being opened up in the mid-late nineteenth century, the George Inn was built on the main road in a little spot by itself. Opposite was Fairfield (Firfield?) House, a small mansion with glasshouses associated with it. However, as the suburb inexorably spread and encroached, the terracing swallowed the remaining land, and the house was demolished to make way for Belluton Road. The George used to have housing right up to its wall but that was destroyed in the Blitz.

2010 : Sign outside The George, Wells Road, Bristol
As no regnal number is given this should be a portrait of George I but seems to show George II. It compares with the image shown here https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portrait/mw02449/King-George-II
