Edmondes Arms, Jack's Corner, Cowbridge
Pub on the corner of Cardiff Road and Aberthin Road. Both roads are the A4222 which makes a 90 degree turn here.
The name Jack’s Corner on the building recalls a dog that once lived here. The year on the pub name sign is 1899, but there is a reference to The Edmondes Arms Public House in an 1895 edition of a Kelly's Directory, so presumably the current building was built on the site of its predecessor. The Directory records that a Mrs Edmondes of High Street is a "principal landowner" in Cowbridge.
