The Bandon Arms (1), 33 Mill Street, Bridgnorth, Shrops
This Marston's public house, on the edge of Low Town, has an interesting history. It is a Grade II listed building. The listing gives a date for the building of early 19th century. However the pub has a history going back to at least 1726 so maybe the date is wrong, or the building was rebuilt or relocated, as has happened to several pubs in the town. The present name was adopted in early Victorian times but previously it was the Hand & Bottle, and then the Bottle in Hand.
In 1726 it had its own malthouse and was home to a masonic lodge. It was one of the three pubs in Bridgnorth to have a cock fighting pit. The practice was legally banned in England and Wales in 1835.
